Nazaré

Because of several unique geological features, including an underwater canyon right off shore,
Nazaré has some of the most unique beaches in the world.
Some days the ocean is calm, and the waves are perfect for typical beach going adventures.
Some days the water is so rough it carves away the beach like a backhoe, and no one is allowed near it.
During the winter months, the largest waves in the world can emerge, making Nazaré a premier spot for big wave surfers.
​“Climbers have Everest. Surfers have Nazaré.” - Portuguese big wave surfer, António Silva
