100 foot waves?!!! 🤯🤯🤯
💾 Save this post for your travel plans of the future!
We went on a day trip to Nazaré, Portugal. A beach town a 1.5 hour drive from Lisbon that’s known for it’s whopping great waves 🌊
The ‘big wave season’ runs between October – March and you can check just how big the waves are gonna be for the days ahead on nazarewaves.com 👩💻
If you’re lucky enough to be in the area when there’s ‘Giant Waves’ which reach heights of 20-30 metres, keep checking to see if the Nazaré Tow Surfing Challenge gets announced. It could be at any point between now and the end of the season.
🏄♀️ It’s a competition where professional surfers will try their luck against huge waves – I would have LOVED to have witnessed it with my own eyes.
It’s also worth saying that Nazaré is just a 2 hour drive down from Porto as well – so it’s definitely one to keep checking on if you’re planning a trip already and this sounds right up your street 🔎
🎬 Footage used from World Surf League and Guinness World Record’s YouTube channels – I have devoured their videos since visiting and can’t get over how high those waves get – and the fact people choose to get amongst them! Go give them a watch 👍
📣 COMMENT IF…
You’ve been to Nazaré and seen some big ol’ waves for yourself – or if this is something you’d love to see for yourself too 👀
