Spot intelligence.

Molhe Leste gains shape and shelter beside the harbour wall. The structure also adds current and a hard boundary, so the model stays conservative.

Character

01

Molhe Leste is defined by fast right and adjacent beach peaks over sand beside the harbour breakwater. The shape can change with swell angle, period and the active section, so the live score should always be paired with a visual check from shore.

Best setup

02

SW–W swell, n–ne offshore and low to mid · rising form the profile baseline. SWELLRADAR treats 0.7–2.5 m as a working range, not a guarantee of breaking-wave size.

03

Choose a peak that matches your experience and reassess it as tide and crowd change. Pay particular attention to harbour breakwater, strong rip currents, fast shorebreak. Local signs and advice always take priority.
