About Rio Mondego / Spot do Berbigao
Flat and shallow water. Mid tide (highest 4.0m) floods the island, so check tides before. Mostly soft sand with small shells, some areas are muddy (not to many). It's a good place to go when the surf is too big/stormy on the ocean.
How do I get to Rio Mondego / Spot do Berbigao?
From Figueira da Foz go to Cova/Cabedelo, just after the big bridge and before the small one turn right, go south (left) and under the main road you where using before and then left again just after. Get a small cheap supermarket rubber boat (fins are good to have!), put everything on top, put on the wetsuit and paddle to the beach. Launch the kite on the beach (better with 5th line).
