Supertubos - No wonder why the best surfers in the world want to compete here. Supertubos is one the most perfect beachbreaks in the planet. Photo: Hélio António

Cave, Ericeira - My favorite wave to shoot. Cave is as much beautiful as it is dangerous. Definitly not for the faint of heart. Photo: Hélio António

Secret - This slab doesn't have much clientele. It's big, heavy, and extremely dificult to surf. For me it's an adrenaline machine. Photo: Hélio António
Growing up so close to the beach definitely ignited my passion for waves and salt water. I truly believe a perfect wave is nature’s most beautiful form. Nowadays, I shoot mostly at Nazaré and the central coastal of Portugal, but my biggest passion is to travel and shoot different spots and landscapes. These five photos I chose are probably my favorite spots to shoot in and out of the water and I hope they spark the will to visit Portugal and, of course, my hometown Nazaré.
