Review & FAQ:
If you're looking for a day trip that won't take you too far out of the city, Matosinhos Beach is a wonderful choice. Only 15 minutes away from the center of Porto, it boasts a wide stretch of golden sand and medium-sized waves that are perfect for surfing. Surf boards can be rented on the beach, and the water tends to be quite chilly, so many surfers choose to bring or rent a wetsuit to stay warm. There's a small selection of cafes by the water, but if you want a full meal, you're better off heading into the nearby town of Matosinhos.
