Your Day Includes

✅ Jet Ski Experience – Suit up in a wetsuit and safety gear for the ride of your life. You’ll hop on the back of a jet ski with one of Nazaré’s elite drivers—trusted by the biggest names in big-wave surfing.

✅ Into the Waves – After a safety briefing, you’ll head out of the harbor, past the lighthouse, and into the massive surf. If waves are under 40 feet, you’ll ride through the breaking surf. If they’re over 40 feet, you’ll sit on the outside, watching surfers drop into giants, staring straight into the barrel of these Sea Monsters.

  • The 100 Foot Wave Experience is a full day in Nazare (roughly 9AM-5PM). You will start the day by meeting your trip guide who is a spotter for the Jetski Teams at Nazare. He will take you around the entire town, helping you understand the history of Nazare, introducing you to any active spotters for teams in the water, taking you to the lighthouse to watch the waves and surfers, experience the museum, he will also take you to lunch and then to the Marina where the culminating Jetski experience will occur.

  • No you do not. You can come even if you’ve never surfed before. You will be spending time on a jet ski moving at very high needs, and some level of phsical fitness is helpful. However, our drivers can help assess just how much intensity you can handle. If you feel out of shape or tired, they can take you on a more mellow experience. If you’re super in shape and want the full throttle adrenaline experience, they can help you have that too.
