I am 56 and have seen so many waves live, seen pictures of waves, watched videos of waves, but THIS.....this is the most dramatic video I have ever seen! Just the magnitude and size of the waves and then the clarity of the video and having objects to provide perspective. It is just a wonderful video. THANK YOU for knowing how to video tape, and not jiggling around or missing the best parts of the display. Thanks for sharing, you have my vote for the best wave video!

Those waves are so big they look like they are moving in slow motion, 80 foot plus here but about 200 feet of white water when they slam into the cliffs. Nazare, which is a popular HUGE wave surf spot in Portugal has had waves over 100 feet and has had the biggest wave ever rode that was ridden by American Garrett MaNamara estimated at 93 feet! I've ridden waves as big as 20 feet but 90 feet plus I could not imagine the power something like that can produce. 20 foot has enough power to rip and tear muscles, ligaments while also able to break collarbones, backs, necks, give you concussions or hold you down long enough to drown you.

That near cliff has to be 100 meters high, and the waves are breaking way over the top of them. I saw waves almost as high when I was in Puerto Escondido, Mexico in 1985 due to s hurricane 300 miles due west in the Pacific Ocean. There were no cliffs for the waves to break over as spectacularly as these. Although it is dramatic to view on video, it is much more impressive to observe in person. You really begin to understand the power of Mother Nature from watching this spectacle. Surly the technology exists that could harnessed that power on most coasts around the world to provide power to thousands of Las Vegas size cities.

Por te cruzarmos, quantas mães choraram, Quantos filhos em vão rezaram! Quantas noivas ficaram por casar Para que fosses nosso, ó mar! Valeu a pena? Tudo vale a pena Se a alma não é pequena.

The mythical Cabo de São Vicente.. Which was the last sight of Europe for Portuguese explorers who set out to find a nautical passage to the fabulous riches of the East. And they found it. They even were the first to navigate around the globe. The names of Diogo Cão, Vasco da Gama, Fernão de Magalhães entered the Valhalla of seafarers. The astronomical knowledge and nautical skills of the Portuguese was unsurpassed in these times. That is why they turned down the idea of a certain Cristoforo Colombo from Genua, who foolishly maintained that one can get to China sailing due West in just one month. They correctly estimated 3-4 months for such a journey, which made it seem practically impossible. I have rounded the Cabo in my sea kayak in tranquil weather, which nevertheless was awe inspiring. And I visualized that when things get really rough the foam from crashing waves might reach even halfway up the enormous cliffs. Never I imagined that these towering cliffs can be dwarfed by waves as captured in the video. They are colossal, gigantic, titanic. Thank you so much for sharing this magnificent sight !
