Praia Do Norte, located in the famous town of Nazaré, is renowned for its consistently big waves. These waves are not your average waves – they can tower up to an astonishing 50 ft or even more. That's why Praia Do Norte is a popular spot for expert surfers seeking a thrilling challenge, as it's not the place for small waves. These gigantic waves can be found throughout the year, but they reach their peak between November and February. And here's something incredible: when a powerful storm occurs in the Atlantic Ocean, these waves can even break their own records and surge up to a staggering 80 ft in height! To catch these waves at their best, you'll want a westward swell, and when the wind blows from the east, it creates the ideal conditions for this epic surf spot.
