Surfing trough the eye of the storm with Surf Guide Algarve
To point out, we should be very happy with the rain that is falling now. Algarve suffers from endless dry spells and the winter did never really start. Until now that is. Temperatures dropped about 20 degrees overnight. Shorts and flipflops make way for rainjackets and beanies. Winter is here. While a few of our Surf Guide Algarve guests pospone their trip for more sunny times, other roll the dice. Wet we will get anyway right? Surfing trough the eye of the storm. Enjoy the story.
Code orange, after rain comes...
Straightaway when there is a little bit of wind in the air the Portuguese government sends out a text with a code orange weather warning. Whatever that might mean. Maybe it has something to do with insurance claims or something political. Warned you right? In reality Surf Guide Algarve often shines in these kind of conditions. Almost ten years of wave chasing is paying of. We score absolutely incredible waves with no one else out. Thinking to make this first pic into a postcard, what do you recon?
Diamonds in the rough
Different from the epic day before the wind now really turned into the evil direction. Basically onshore anywhere. In truth this might be a good day to rest up and lick our wounds. Yet we have a vip- returning surf guide algarve guest who really wants to get wet. To repeat there is no such thing as a bad surf. Scoring some diamonds in the rough with only a few guys in the water, can think of way worse starts of a day!
