Surf Guide Algarve scores waves we all love

If you think being a surf guide is a dream job, you are completely correct. Yet, it is not an easy one! Starting off with the fact mother nature does not always play by the rules. Forecast websites getting more and more advanced and still they are not able to look into the future. Waves suppose to be 2ft yet they are 6 plus… How does this work? Angles of swell and period have a lot to do with this, and so does the tide and the moon. Finally it is just the eye that we can trust, when you get to the beach and see the waves you know what you get. Enjoy how Surf Guide Algarve scores waves we all love.

The best wave of my life

‘‘Dude I had the best wave of my life!’’ Father of 2, guessing him late 30s, surfs since he is 12 years old. Every blue moon, when the tide is just right and the swell in our favor it makes sense to go to Punta Ruiva. Usually a point break is not a great place for guiding as it gets busy real quick. Arriving first with a swell that is clearly over producing. Waves connecting all the way from top to the beach and our surf guide algarve guest, well… Has the best wave of his life.

Fun waves for everyone

Spring is in the air, flowers everywhere but lucky for us, there is still plenty of swell in the ocean. Zavial is the place to be today. Dawn patrol it is, the sun is giving the most arty colour combo ever and the waves look good. Gibson surfboards creates another magic stick that needs testing and these waves look perfect for it. Starting off with some fast rights, even a couple of waves on the point and when the water comes in the left starts working. Goofie foot dream waves. Stoked to share one of our adventures?
