Fajã dos Padres
Edit SpotAbout
I dont know. ...I only ride this wave with windsurf board. Last time it was 25 knots wind speed and some waves with some high of my mast sail. But for me looks really powerful and speedy.
Atmosphere:
This spot is not for everyone. Powerful in the drop. ...and than just give speed man!
