Peniche surf & climb sessions
30.09.2017
Taking advantage of the big swell hitting the Portuguese coast on Sunday (September 24th) we head to Peniche for a weekend escape!
As expected, Supertubos was charging and I managed to get some shoots of the pros from the beach!!










Besides great Surf, Peniche also offer some cool climbing options, particularly a big sandstone boulder at Carreiro de Joanes beach!

Frederico Gimenez on start of “Sandman”, a excellent 7b opened by Pena some time ago. Starting deeper in the cave is named “Sandstorm” – 7c+!
