Perfect Winter Lineup @ Secret Spot

First time I saw this wave was from a 12th floor hotel window, just after waking up... Could not believe in my eyes!! It was one of the most perfect lineup´s ever seen on the portuguese coastline and i´ve been looking for lineups in the last 30 years, and totaly empty... One month later I went back to the same spot, but this time with a surfboard, and that´s the type of pearls I got that morning!

Give a little bit...

Surf is not everything...sometimes we have to make an effort and think about preserving “mother nature”. It's terrible when you go surfing and see the beach full of rubbish, just because some people don't respect , and don't care about Nature.
Last weekend, Baleal Surf Camp, Surfrider Foundation and other volunteers were cleaning a little portion in “Point Fabril Beach – Peniche – Portugal”, but that “little portion” transformed into such a good feeling on our minds, and now we can say Mission accomplished.
It's easy! Just take a organic plastic bag, a pair of gloves and go ahead; no fear, no shame, no bias...Make your share, collect the rubbish and that's it...afterwards, you will be comfortable on your pillow when you lie your head to sleep...
Here we make our pledge, please don't destroy the nature, keep it clean...
