Forte Novo Surf Guide
Forte Novo in The Algarve is an exposed breakwater break that has pretty consitent surf, although summer tends to be mostly flat. Offshore winds blow from the northeast and there is no shelter here from cross shore breezes. Waves just as likely from local windswells as from distant groundswells and the best swell direction is from the west southwest. Waves at the breakwater are both lefts and rights. Best around low tide. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Overcrowding can even make surfing hazardous.
