Praia do Cabeco

Praia do Cabeco is the Castro Marim beach known locally as Praia da Retur, part of the Monte Gordo and Praia Verde shoreline on the eastern Algarve. It is a straightforward open beach break rather than a marquee point or reef, with the identity coming from the long dune-backed coast.

The Wave

North wind is the clean side and south swell is the useful trigger at Praia do Cabeco.

The wave is unreliable and lefts-only, so keep the check simple: look for a clean south pulse, use the broad beach line, and stay conservative on tide because the tide window is not sharply locked.
