Welcome to the wall at Paço d’Arcos.

This is one of the emblematic bodyboard wedges whenever the swell rises and hits the Portuguese coast. It is a spot, in essence, that breathes bodyboarding – with barrels, lips and sweet little corners to hit and fly away – and there we can see some of the best local performers.

The place stays a few kilometers from the capital Lisbon and shapes amazing triangles where bodyboarders can get really creative.

However, today, not a soul was seen at lunch time and Mauro Bandeiras, a Portuguese shredder who knows well the nuances of this wave, was able to enjoy the meal perfectly, with all the time and calm in the world. Click to enter the super clean and pristine restaurant.
