AZORES, SURFING PARADISE HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT | VON FROTH

Спорт

Portugal Back to Back, An adrenaline-pumping surf series with Nic Von Rupp taking you to some of the most beautiful parts of Portugal and this time taking on the majestic waves of São Miguel, Azores. One unforgettable trip through crystal-clear waters, breathtaking landscapes and perfect barrels. Nic and his gorgeous girlfriend swim in steaming hot springs, taste the delicious Azorean food, explore the island’s lush nature and rejoice in the hospitality of Azores, a magical place that some even consider to be the remnants of the lost continent of Atlantis.

    The people of Madeira island were the sugar cane workers and also whale catchers in Hawaii! Don't no why they never mention that? The ukulele is an instrument that was brought from the people of Madeira island to Hawaii we call it Braguinha! Not underestimating the azzorians. I'm half madeirence half açoriano! Great show you've got here. 👍

    Loved my brief time there in the nineties. So old world and that's what I really loved about it. Most of the waves I found in October were a little too crazy for a solo surfer with no one around, but I found some nooks and crannies that were just right :)
