We asked Jack one of our sponsored surfers a few questions about his recent surf trip to Portugal - and this is what he had to say:
- Where in Portugal did you stay? Been there before? Sagres. Yes went last year but didn't surf because it was too big.
- How hot was it? 20-25 degrees & sunny.
- What breaks did you surf? And which was your favorite? I surfed at Castelejo, Tonel, Beliche, Zavial, Mareta. I liked Beliche the most.
- What board did you ride? My 6'4" fish.
- How were the waves compared to Devon? They were much better because they were more powerful and barrelling.
- How big were the waves? 2-6ft but 4ft was the biggest I surfed.
- Were there many other Groms in the water? No. I was the only grom.
- Any tips for Groms visiting Portugal? Go to Beliche. The water is a nice colour and very clean.
- Planning any more surf trips? Cornwall in the summer and then it is up to my dad!!
