Peniche in October

Postby Jussie » Mon Sep 01, 2014 6:27 pm

Hi to everyone!

I'm going to have my first experience in Portugal in October. I know that ocean is really cold - 17-19 degrees. So my questions are if it comfortable to spend for whole 2 hours in water and which wetsuit should I choose? Is there any chance to frostbite internals or even balls? :shrug:

Thanks in advance for an answer.

The water in Peniche is still pretty warm in October. You could get away with a 3/2 quite easily, although I would recommend a 4/3.

You'll only get frostbite on your balls if you paddle out wearing a thong.
