Tides play a role in determining wave quality at many surf spots, but some locations like Pico Alto remain consistent regardless of tidal changes. In these spots, the depth of the water over the seabed stays relatively stable, meaning the waves break in a similar way throughout the tidal cycle. Whether it's high, medium, or low tide, the wave conditions at these spots are largely unaffected, offering consistent surf sessions at any time of day.
