Today is unfortunately not an ideal day for a trip to Praia da Congreira. The morning starts with thick fog covering the area, which limits visibility significantly and creates a damp atmosphere. While the clouds may break up slightly as the day progresses, the air temperature reaching 20.9 °C feels quite cool, especially when combined with the brisk winds that are stirring up the coast. With wave heights reaching 1.9 m, the water is particularly rough and unsettled. Furthermore, the sea temperature remains a very chilly 14.8 °C, making it far too cold for swimming. Please be mindful that the UV Index is quite high at 8.05, so protect your skin even if it feels cool outside. Given the choppy conditions and low temperatures, it is better to skip the beach today.
