The east and southwest winds and the flat chop waves give you the opportunity to feel the adrenaline, while you are seduced by the mystery of the Atlantic ocean. In summer there are waves with swell size from 1.5 to 4 ft (0.5- 1.3 m) and the wind blows offshore at 4%. The temperature in summer is around 28°C/82.40°F.
