Overview

Praia de Árvore is next to Mindelo, slightly further north near Vila do Conde. Similar conditions — long sandy beach, NW Nortada, Atlantic waves. Even quieter than Mindelo. Part of the continuous stretch of beaches north of Porto. Good for intermediate wave riding when Porto beaches are too crowded.
