Surf spot guide · Lisbon, Portugal
Cresmina is a sandy Lisbon beach break with fun waves and scenic dunes.
Located just west of Cascais, Cresmina offers consistent beach break waves suitable for most surfers. The spot works best with moderate Atlantic swells, producing both lefts and rights over a sandy bottom. Winds from the east provide clean conditions, while strong currents can develop on bigger days. The beach is exposed and can get windy, so mornings are usually best. Facilities are nearby, and the natural setting is beautiful but exposed to the elements.
Consistent lefts and rights over sand, best before the Atlantic wind arrives.
