It seems like tomorrow will be the big day! Tomorrow the Nazar\u00e9 Big Wave Event 2016 is expected to start<\/strong>. Nazar\u00e9, about 125km North of Lisbon, is one of the most popular seaside resorts along the \u201cCosta de Prata\u201d (Silver Coast), Portugal. Since November 2011, when surfer Garrett McNamara<\/strong>, from Hawaii, surfed a record-breaking giant wave (23.8 m) at Nazar\u00e9, this seaside village became famous for its big waves.<\/span><\/p>\n

In recent years, Nazar\u00e9 has become a popular tourist destination<\/strong> being a picturesque seaside village. Its long sandy beaches are considered to be among the best beaches in Portugal.<\/span><\/p>\n

After his record-breaking giant wave in 2011, McNamara returned to Nazar\u00e9 several times in the search of an even bigger wave. In October, 2013, Carlos Burle<\/strong>, from Brazil, surfed another wave that is being studied as possibly the largest wave ever ridden. Surfing big waves in Nazar\u00e9 is not without danger. In October 2013, female surfer Maya Gabeira<\/strong> experienced a near-death wipeout in Nazar\u00e9. Fortunately, she was rescued after losing consciousness. <\/span><\/p>\n

Nazar\u00e9 hosts such very high breaking waves thanks to the presence of the underwater Canyon<\/strong>. This canyon makes the waves much larger. The famous big waves of Nazar\u00e9 gave origin to the Nazar\u00e9 Big Wave Event 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n
