In other side, Nazaré became a tourist resort, thanks to its long beach’s (considered like the most beautiful beaches of Portugal).Thanks to all these advantages, Nazaré is, since the mid-twentieth century, the favorite destination of famous writers, artists and photographers.

But Nazaré also happens to be a gem for lovers of water sports. Indeed, in this place, you can find the most beautiful and powerful waves of the Atlantic Ocean, the wind blows steadily, especially in summer.

We believe that, once again, Nazaré will host a fantastic event with national and international impact. That is our mission: transform Nazaré as a privilege stage on the worldwide water sports scene'.
