Spot notes
Photographing surf in Ericeira
Ericeira is a natural base for a surf session on the west coast. Within a short distance there are waves for different levels, tides and swell directions.
Conditions
The choice of peak depends on tide, wind and size. A local read before the session helps avoid missing the best hours.
Photo angle
Cliffs, dark rock and blue water create strong contrast for editorial photo and video.
