Peniche has always been a land of sea and waves. Of mild temperature, it is located west of Portugal and it’s a land of stunning natural beauty and being a Peninsula it is fortunate to be surrounded by sea.
It is perhaps the best place in Portugal to surf not only for the quantity and quality of its waves but also because being a peninsula it allows for off-shore winds from any quarter.
With a vast diversity of surf “spots”, it has waves for all the tastes. On the north coast, from Peniche to Baleal, you can find the best waves to learn how to surf, while at the South Coast the waves are better for more experienced surfers. The wave at Supertubos beach, for instance, is actually recognized internationally as one of the best in the world, being a beach-break with great power and with really deep tubes it is the place of choice of the best national and international surfers.
Historically Peniche received its first ever International Surfing Championship in 1977, culminating with the recent inclusion of a stage set in the calendar of the ASP World Tour as a result of excellent waves that hosted the Rip Curl "The Search" in Peniche in 2009.
