Giant Wave Surfing in Nazaré, Portugal

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Top AirVuz contributor ArturCarvalho won the Drone Video of the Week contest in December, 2025 with this fantastic video of the legendary surfing scene at Nazaré.  Using a DJI Mavic Pro 4, he filmed top surfers Lucas Chumbo, Justine Dupont, Sebastian Steudtner plying the giant waves at this famous beach on Portugal's Central Coast.  Due to an offshore canyon and a unique pattern of offshore currents, Nazaré is home to some of the largest waves ever surfed, documented as tall as 86 ft. in height (26 m).
