We thank Garret Mcnamara for his words: “I managed to show the world that Portugal existed, through Nazaré. We caught the biggest wave in the world. It passed on CNN, on the BBC and suddenly Portugal was at the centre of the world. We put people's eyes in Portugal and then we showed them how beautiful the country is, how fantastic the people are, how great the food is, how cheap it is. It is also the safest country in the world.”.
