The contest is part of a calendar of competitions that Ericeira Surf Clube promotes throughout the season, reinforcing the town's role as the surfing capital of Portugal. Organizers advise visitors to confirm the beach where the competition will take place through the club's official channels, as the choice depends on sea conditions on the days of the event.
