40Β°21'N β Where the Atlantic never sleeps
Peniche is a rugged peninsula jutting into the Atlantic Ocean, 80km north of Lisbon. Known to locals for centuries as a fishing town, it shot to global fame when it became host to the Rip Curl Pro β one of the most prestigious stops on the WSL Championship Tour.
Here, the ocean wraps three sides of the peninsula, delivering an unmatched variety of waves: powerful beach breaks, long lefts, and hollow barrels. Whatever conditions the Atlantic throws, there's always a wave for you somewhere in Peniche.
Peniche's geography creates a unique diversity of surf spots within minutes of each other.
