Environmental Guidelines

Skimboarding is a sport practiced in natural environments, specifically on beaches. For this reason, it is essential that we respect and care for our beaches. This is especially important at Faro de Trafalgar Beach, as it is located within a protected natural area. We kindly ask all participants to follow these guidelines:

  • Use only the designated beach access points.
  • Do not drive vehicles onto the beach.
  • Near the event organisation tents, you will find several bins for disposing of any waste generated during the event.
  • At the end of each day, all participants are asked to collect and remove anything that does not belong on the beach (umbrellas, towels, chairs, rubbish, etc.).
  • We recommend using sunscreen that is environmentally friendly and safe for marine life.
  • Food waste must also be collected and removed from the beach. Their degradation is much slower than we might think, and they pollute the environment.
