During a recent trip to Portugal, we stopped in Nazaré, a coastal town outside of Lisbon known for surfing and giant waves. Despite only visiting for a day, we knew we couldn’t stop without learning to surf. After a fueling lunch at AZULL Rooftop by the Sea, we headed down to the beach to meet our instructors at Nazaré Surf School, founded in 2012. It’s the first and only school with a location right on iconic Nazaré beach.
