Supertubos Beach
Praia dos Supertubos
Known as 'Europe's barrel beach', this is a stop on the World Surf League tour, with dunes stretching along it, ideal for watching competitions and walking.
Supertubos Beach lies south of Peniche. Its shallow sandy bottom makes the swells break into powerful tubular waves, earning it the nickname 'Europe's barrel'. It has been a stop on the World Surf League professional tour for many years. Behind the beach lie large dunes, and surf schools and beach bars line the area. When the waves are big, only skilled surfers should venture out, so most visitors watch from the sand. It is about a 5-minute bike or car ride from Peniche town.
