How we score the water

Our own model

Our own forecast engine — not a third-party widget. It weighs these water factors into one go-or-stay verdict for this coast; the 0–10 dial is that verdict, read out as a number.

Valovi i pamćenje mora
Visina, period i smjer valova, uz trag nedavnih oluja — stara oluja još muti vodu, a motor to pamti.
Wind & gusts
Speed and gusts, hour by hour — wind speed and an onshore push chop the surface and cut visibility.
Tide phase
Timing and range of the tide, calibrated per coast — big spring tides pull the verdict toward caution.
Water temperature
Sea-surface temperature — sharply cold water vetoes a green verdict.
Currents & outflow
Direction and drift of the current — it pushes you, and it drags turbid coastal water across where you dive.
Rain runoff & air clarity
Rain muddies the water inshore through land runoff, while fog and haze cut visibility at the surface.
Coast shape & exposure
How the coast faces the swell — a sheltered cove keeps the water clean; an exposed, head-on point takes a penalty.

Safety gates

  • Thunderstorm forecast — an instant red, no exceptions.
  • An official warning (MeteoAlarm / IPMA) — yellow, or red for the higher ranks.
  • Missing input data — a would-be green is capped to yellow rather than overstated.
  • Strong disagreement between forecast models — a green day is pulled back to yellow.
  • Night hours — forced red; the window is closed after dark.

It all folds into a single 0–10 score and one verdict: go or stay.

A forecast, not a guarantee — the sea has the last word.

Vidljivost i što je određuje — bistrenje nakon oluje, riječni nanos, temperatura i termoklina.

Što je to

Pomorski instrument,
idi / ne idi za solo lov.

spearo.app spaja vjetar, val, period vala, vidljivost, plimu, temperaturu vode i rizik u jednu ocjenu — idi na točku ili ne. Računa 7 dana unaprijed iz otvorenih pomorskih modela (Open-Meteo, IPMA), bez registracije i računa. Napravljen za solo podvodni ribolov sa stijena, gdje svaka greška skupo košta.

Now live: 1152 spots across 189 stretches of coast — mainland Portugal, Madeira and the Azores.

Castelo do Queijo (Forte de São Francisco Xavier)Northern rocky headland, Nevogilde
na granici
najbolji kandidat za danas
danas izložen mrtvom moru u lice
prozor
Early morning in summer before the sea breeze; June–September gives the clearest water.
plima
Low to mid incoming tide exposes the reef and eases entry; at high tide the rocks are awash.
zaklon
Almost no shelter — an open Atlantic headland. North wind eases the swell a little on the fort's south side; any W/NW swell washes right over the rocks.
opasnost
Waves hit the fort rocks head-on — sets and backwash at the exit boulders can sweep you off. Entry/exit over wet granite is slippery.
pristup
Park by the fort on Av. de Montevideu; pick your way to the water over the granite slabs on the north/south side of the point.

Well-known robalo/sargo mark — fish track the reef hunting shrimp and crab. Busy urban shore; only enter when it's calm.

Google Maps
Molhe de Felgueiras / Praia das Pastoras (Douro mouth)Douro river-mouth breakwater, Felgueiras lighthouse
zatvoreno
mrtvo more danas bočno
prozor
Not for entering the water. Land-based viewing / photos at the lighthouse only.
plima
Ebb tide amplifies the river outflow and current across the bar — the most dangerous; there is no safe tidal window to enter here.
zaklon
None — an open river mouth where swell wraps the breakwater and meets the river outflow. Any W/SW swell makes the zone lethal.
opasnost
Notorious spot: people are regularly swept off the Felgueiras breakwater by swell; bar current, backwash and eddies at the mouth.
pristup
From the seafront by the Felgueiras lighthouse — stay on land.

Hunting is banned by law in the river-mouth navigation channel and on the Molhe Norte (2018/2019 fishing ban). Do not enter the water; scout from land only.

Google Maps
Praia da LuzRocky cove under the Monte da Luz lighthouse
zatvoreno
danas izložen mrtvom moru u lice
prozor
Early morning in calm conditions, summer; quieter than the neighbouring beaches outside peak hours.
plima
Low to mid tide exposes more rock and cracks at the cove edges.
zaklon
A small sandy pocket framed by rock under the lighthouse; the outcrops shelter the pockets from side-swell, but the front is open west.
opasnost
Shorebreak on the surrounding rocks and entrapment in cracks as swell builds; weeded rocks are slippery. Boats pass close off the point.
pristup
From the coastal road/promenade by Monte da Luz, a short descent to the sand; park along the seafront.

Guarded bathing beach in summer — no hunting in the bathing zone/season; of interest off-season along the rocks, and only when calm.

Google Maps
Praia do Homem do LemeRocky beach below the Homem do Leme esplanade
zatvoreno
danas izložen mrtvom moru u lice
prozor
Summer outside the guarded bathing season or early morning; water is clearest July–September.
plima
Low to mid tide opens up more reef at the ends of the beach.
zaklon
Open west and exposed; granite/metamorphic outcrops at the ends knock down some swell in the rocky pockets. North wind is onshore but cleans the water.
opasnost
Shorebreak on the rocky ends and rip current in the pockets between outcrops; slippery exit rocks. Urban beach — boats/SUP nearby.
pristup
Straight off the Homem do Leme esplanade/promenade via steps to the beach; park along Av. do Brasil.

In summer this is a guarded bathing beach — no hunting in the bathing zone/season; consider only off-season at the far rocks, clear of swimmers.

SOLO is the biggest risk: underwater you can black out from lack of oxygen silently and fatally, with no one around. Solo is never truly «safe». Below are the best weather windows; carry a buoy, tell someone your plan and exit time, and any doubt — don't go.

Zakon
🦀 spider crab open (season 16.06–14.02)
  • ✓Spearfishing licence required (16+), daily/monthly/annual (~€25/yr). Speargun = licence required.
  • ✓Hand-gathering shellfish with NO gear — no licence; but if a speargun is on the dive, a spearfishing licence is required.
  • ✓Night prohibited: spearfishing only in daylight (sunset→sunrise not allowed). Artificial light as a means of finding/attracting fish is banned — a torch for safety only.
  • ✓Signalling buoy MANDATORY for spearfishing: buoy/float with an «Alfa» flag (red/orange/yellow, ≥8 L), no more than 30 m from the diver.
  • ✓Spearfishing daily limit: fish + cephalopods — 15 kg (excluding the largest specimen). General rod-and-line recreational fishing — 10 kg.
  • ✓Invertebrates (including spider crab) — 2 kg/day total.
  • ✓Spider crab: min. carapace 12 cm; (closed season) 15.02–15.06 — applies to recreational gathering too.
  • ✓Min. sizes: robalo 36 cm, sargo 17 cm, dourada 19 cm, choupa 23 cm, corvina 42 cm; octopus 750 g.
  • ✓Grouper — fully protected, may not be taken.
  • ⛔ Grouper (Epinephelus) — fully protected, capture PROHIBITED.
  • ⛔ Seahorses (Hippocampus) — protected.

Rules change. Before heading out, check with DGRM / ICNF / Capitania and the defeso table.

Sigurnosni protokol
  • Sets: watch the wave trains ≥15 min before entering; Hmax ≈ 2×Hs, the wash can run 50 m past the foam line. A lull >10 min with period >12 s = a big set «overdue», do NOT enter; enter right after a full set passes and re-check at minute 30.
  • Exit FIRST: find your exit AND a backup before entering. At Cabo Raso/Arriba a 0.5 m rise in swell makes a boulder exit impossible — getting pinned/unable to climb out is the main killer here.
  • Headland rip: at Cabo Raso there is a permanent topographic rip regardless of the model — locate it, enter/exit on the windward side, never swim against it.
  • Cold: wetsuit per the SST chip; the first shiver = a metabolic surge and a drop in breath-hold → get out at the first steady shiver. Cap the session at 45–60 min below 15 °C.
  • Solo discipline: buoy up; tell someone the spot and exit time; conservative breath-hold (never push it in cold/murky/surfy water); visibility <3 m — don't enter.
  • Nortada (Jun–Sep): wind builds from midday — be out of the water by ~11:00; the chop builds — get out.
  • UV 11:00–15:00 (UVI ≥6): sunscreen and cover up on the surface interval.
  • Solo is a fundamental risk (hypoxic blackout with no buddy). Any doubt = No-go.

FAQ — spearfishing in Foz do Douro

Where can I spearfish in Foz do Douro?

Foz do Douro has rock entry points such as Castelo do Queijo (Forte de São Francisco Xavier), Praia do Homem do Leme and Praia da Luz. Porto's exposed seafront with extensive rock (Felgueiras/Molhe) — a handy shore-dive for the city's freediving community. Below you'll find each spot (access, shelter and hazards) and today's forecast.

When is the best season in Foz do Douro?

The window is narrow: mainly summer (June–September), when the NW eases. The rest of the year the Atlantic swell shuts almost everything down.

How cold is the water in Foz do Douro?

Cold: ~14–18 °C, with upwelling dropping it even in summer. Expect a 7 mm suit + hood, gloves and boots for most of the year.

Is Foz do Douro good for a beginner?

It's demanding: a cold, exposed, big-swell coast with rare windows. For experienced divers who can read the sea — not a place to start.

Do I need a licence in Foz do Douro?

Yes — in Foz do Douro, as everywhere on the mainland, you need a recreational fishing licence (DGRM); breath-hold only (no scuba), with a marker buoy and no night diving. See the guide for the details.
