WEATHER
Peniche has a mild climate all your round. In spring expect air temperatures around 20 degrees Celsius, in summer around 28 degrees, autumn 20 degrees and in winter around 15 degrees.
WAVES
Peniche is known for its consistent swells and its numerous spot options. If you are an experienced surfer and want to catch big waves, we recommend spring, autumn and winter time. Due to spring tides we also get big swells in August. In principle there is always a suitable beach for beginners found all year round.
WATER TEMPERATURE
In spring, summer and autumn we surf with a 3/2 mm wetsuit, in winter with a 4/3mm wetsuit. Since the water stays relatively fresh during summer (around 20 degrees) we recommend using a wetsuit all year round.
