People are only just beginning to wake up to the potential of Nazaré. A finger of deep water points directly at the beach to the north of town and the result is similar to La Nord in Hossegor. Huge, heavy and hollow beach peaks for the brave.
Be warned - currents can be strong, and giant clean up sets are guaranteed when it's on, which isn?t that often as it's wind exposed. The main town beach offers a sheltered little wedge on big swells.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
