Praia de Sao Martinho do Porto kitesurf, wingfoil and windsurf spot

Portugal · Leiria

Spot currently openBeginner level 39.5 | -9.14

Overview

São Martinho do Porto is a unique shell-shaped bay — nearly enclosed, with only a narrow opening to the Atlantic. This creates very calm, flat water inside the bay. Perfect for beginners, kids, and foiling. Protected from big swell. NW-W wind enters through the bay mouth. One of the safest kite spots in Portugal. Charming small town with restaurants and cafés. A real hidden gem.
