Sal & Boa Vista Beach Finder: Live Wind, Swell & Swimming Safety

⚠️ This is not a live safety flag system. The wind speed and wave height below are real, current readings. Which beaches suit swimming vs. water sports is general geographic guidance (windward coasts are typically rougher, leeward coasts typically calmer) — it is not a substitute for official flags, lifeguards, or local advice on the day. Conditions can change quickly; always check on-site signage before swimming.
