PSP police have fined a surfer who needed rescuing in Cascais for breaking lockdown rules.
The alarm was raised when some people who were at the spot on Monday realised the surfer was in difficulties on Poço beach in Estoril. He was assisted by fire-fighters and Maritime Police, and fined as soon as he was brought to shore, for violating the mandatory confinement decreed as part of Covid-containment rules.

When my bike was stolen the police did not want to care...
The author should correct the name of the beach. It is Praia da Poça ( portuguese for puddle ),in the municipality of Cascais, Lisbon district, and not Praia do Poço ( portuguese for a water well ).
He surfing he could spread the virus to s polvos no resdechao lolaahsh
Yay! They must've been more excited about the fact that they had earned 200€ than that they saved a life.
So this is an immediate fine... However the televised national singing competition is still aloud to go one.... Only 13,000 deaths in Portugal as a total and 75% of them were already over 80.... With a population of 10 million we are talking the figure of around 0.1% of the population is dead. This is a Bull**** excuse of a PANDEMIC, How about someone do some research and post the blatant facts that's are hidden away to the people.
The fine line between safety for everyone, and emprisonament for everyone.
Maybe that person could spread virus on the desert beach, to other non existent surfers.
Why can't we do something useful ?
So proud of the police, saving us from a deadly virus. Hail to the police.
