Nazare

Nazaré is a small fishing town on Portugal’s Atlantic coast, about 120 km north of Lisbon. It’s famous for producing some of the largest surfable waves on Earth. The record is 26 meters.

The massive waves are created by an underwater canyon called the Nazaré Canyon, which is about 5 km deep and 230 km long.

It is one of the premier big wave surfing destinations in the world, attracting top surfers during the winter months.
