Parede, Portugal, is a consistent surf spot with a strong Atlantic influence, delivering reliable swell throughout the year. The best months for surfing here are from late autumn through early spring (November to February), when ground swell dominates, averaging 74–91% of the time, with mean swell heights ranging from 1.9 to 2.2 meters. These months offer the largest and cleanest waves, though wind conditions are less favorable, with only around 37–40% of days having good offshore or cross-offshore winds. The winter season is ideal for experienced surfers who can handle larger swells and occasional onshore winds. From March to May, the swell frequency shifts as wind swells increase, reducing ground swell dominance to 39–84%, with average wave heights dropping to 1.4–1.9 meters. Wind conditions remain challenging, with 34–39% of days providing favorable winds. Summer (June to August) sees the weakest conditions, with wind swells making up 73–83% of the waves and mean heights as low as 1.1 meters. Despite slightly better wind conditions (36–41% good days), the small, short-period swells make it more suitable for beginners. September and October mark the transition back to better surf, with ground swell returning to 46–63% frequency and mean swell size increasing to 1.2–1.6 meters, alongside improved wind conditions (41–44% good days). For the best balance of size, consistency, and wind, late autumn (November) and early spring (March) are solid choices, but the biggest and most powerful waves arrive in winter for those willing to take on the tougher wind conditions.
