Foz do Lizandro

Foz do Lizandro is, like the neighbouring São Julião beach, one of the few beach breaks (where waves break on a sandy seabed) that can be found in Mafra Municipality, where rocky seabeds predominate. For this reason, this is a good place for beginners, as a result of which Foz do Lizandro is quite in demand by surfing schools. But, the waves of this beach also offer good conditions for practitioners with a more advanced technical level, as it is one of the most consistent alternatives on low tide days.
