Nazar\u00e9, named after the biblical land \u2018Nazareth\u2019, this wave frequently reaches heights of 50ft and higher. For context, this is a wall of water taller than a 4-story building. Nazar\u00e9\u2019s story as a big wave motherland only begins in the 2000s, with Hawaiian Garrett McNamara and local Portuguese bodyboarder Dino Casmimiro.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to now, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/-vGa1rrUHMY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tudor\u2019s Nazare Big Wave Challenge<\/a>\u00a0is going off this week.

This gash in the seafloor lies scarily close to the beach at a depth of 20m. However, as you stray from the beach, it rapidly reaches 50m, before completely dropping off to a jaw-dropping 5km deep.<\/p>\n<p>As swell funnels towards the canyon, it splits in two. One part travels through the canyon maintaining its power and gaining speed thanks to the incredible depths beneath it. The canyon also shifts the direction of the swell it holds, angling the waves face \u2013 on to the beach ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, a resident current travels in the opposite direction from the beach towards this swell.<\/p>\n<p>The other part travels alongside the canyon, just around the edge. These two parts meet again, and combine with the current to create the notorious \u2018triangle wave\u2019 Nazar\u00e9 is infamous for. As they meet close to the shore, they collide, amplifying their size.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1395\" src=\"https:\/\/alaia.ch\/bay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2.png\" alt=\"nAZARE-MAP-e1708691672381\" width=\"1516\" height=\"904\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alaia.ch\/bay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2.png 1516w, https:\/\/alaia.ch\/bay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/alaia.ch\/bay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2-1024x611.png 1024w, https:\/\/alaia.ch\/bay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/2-768x458.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1516px) 100vw, 1516px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>This underwater canyon will have points of sheer cliff edge, where the depth leaps from 50m to 5000m (Carapu\u00e7o, M.
