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!
Imagine a 14th to 20th century ship being obliterated against those cliffs in storm seas like this ... This cape is the southwestern most point in Portugal and next to a huge shipping lane. Now the Cabo São Vicente lighthouse is the second (?) most powerful in the world. It can be seen 60 kilometers away. Many centuries of history here. Aweinspiring video = )
on that day january 7th in casablanca morocco we had 13 meters waves never seen before ! everitying on the coastline restaurants swiming pools were destroyed and flooded i have come rapidly to take pictures of those awesome waves it was extraordinary it started from december 2013 the tides rises at night on those days
Wow, thank you for your reply! I think this video is the only one posted on RUclips of those cliffs during the storm. I will now watch it again knowing now that the waves are 13 meters.
One of the places I love most here in Portugal . Sagres is where the land ends and begins the endless sea . I still have this medieval Portuguese feeling on this place.
"Where the land ends and the sea begins" is not related to Sagres, but to Cabo da Roca (which belongs to Sintra and Lisbon). Cabo da Roca is the most western spot in Europe, not Cabo S. Vicente.
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.
These waves aren’t 100m tall there more like 50ft and also there’s only ever been a couple 100ft waves let alone 100m!and puerto Escondido can only get so big because once it gets 25ft it only goes 1ft higher and then that’s it
those are in no way 100m tall lmfao. they’re not breaking over the cliffs either, they’re smashing into the lower part and it’s causing the water to rise up to the cliff top.
It's not dude. Sagres cliffs are around 60ft at most. I know, I been there. Great surf in Sagres and surrounds. FYI offshore waves out of Sagres can be huge. Seen a few rollers offshore Sagres. Scary big.
If you look there are people standing on the next hill over. Comparing the waves to that reference, you come up with about 40' swells that break and peak over 100' high. That is impressive.
It's super fascinating!! It's crazy to think about how long those cliffs have been standing, and how strong they are to resist the power of the sea! Amazing that they don't just crumble away instantly before our eyes, and that just shows how tough the rock really is :D
I have to say it again.....for me, this is probably one of the most profound, awe-inspiring films I have ever viewed. And as another person commented......if this film was twelve hours long, it still wouldn't be long enough!!
Well we have swells like this one every winter, sometimes more than a couple per year, but in this particular day other conditions came to be (wind, period between waves, etc) that created this particular spectacle. And yes, no one was out there because you would definitely get ripped apart

we have always waves, so it will generate energy, in this case i was meaning the amount of energy we could acumulate on that day. But Portugal get this kind of waves more than once in a year.
On the north coast of Barbados during a passing hurricane the waves hit the cliffs even bigger than this, the reef is a bit shallower so the waves barrel and you could fit a bus in the tube. when it hits the cliff the water reaches a couple hundred feet in land.
Hi there! I don't know about one of the best footages, but I do know that seeing all that power strikes a chord…. We get big swells here in the winter but NOTHING like this one was :) thanks for watching!

So those waves in the next bay are splashing maybe 100m into the air (behind the people on the cliff)? That is astounding. I bet they didn't expect to get splashed up there.
@@johankamar1729 The cliffs are around 60m in height. Just compare them to the people on that opposite cliff. There are always morons that have to downgrade everything. Get a grip.
Very, very, very big! They could be 25 meters high! Maybe evan higher. You can not surf this kind of waves. Thats why those waves are not filmd so often. Did you filmd it? Greetings
Hello again :) yes it was me who filmed them here where I live. The waves in the video are indeed around 20 meters high, but for example waves in Nazare ( also in Portugal ) have gotten to 30 meters. So really veryyyyyy big but not as big as Nazare ;)
Its very difficult to measure a wave. I know nazare. But for some reason i find these ones more impressive. I am a Surfer and a Portugal lover. You have witnesst these spectacle with your own Eyes. Wow. That was for sure an amazing Experience. Lucky you. I just showed your footage a Friend on a big screen tv today. That was mui impressionante. Thax for answering Mr or Mrs X ! By the way, you know probably the city sines. 2 hours south of Lissabon. Thats where i have been for about 10 times für last years so far. Very beautiful. Especially the surf. Greetings
That is awsome what a view a must to put onto the travel in entry and not to forget to pack the water wings . I doubt they with the water current it would be surf?.
I do not know the height of these waves . But one time when I was a sea, we had a very much smaller waves coming over the bows . Which was showing a green sea and I'm told they were at least 200 tons !
There's a famous Portuguese poem that starts with these words: "Ó mar salgado, quanto do teu sal são lágrimas de Portugal!" (Translation: "Oh salty sea, how much of your salt are tears of Portugal!"). And i dare to say every portuguese knows these words.
Ó mar salgado, quanto do teu sal São lágrimas de Portugal! 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. Quem quer passar além do Bojador Tem que passar além da dor. Deus ao mar o perigo e o abismo deu, Mas nele é que espelhou o céu.
Sagres sea use to be a very calm sea. You can go there on the summer, and swim like if you were swimming on a pool, despites the water be very cold. Man this is brutal, the nature is very unpredictable.
Bawb Lablaw fare enough, that's how I feel about Nazera. The huge waves there only happen a couple times a year. I hope to get there one day and see that up close. :)
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 !
The reflected waves are travelling in the opposite direction (away from cliffs) to the oncoming waves.. The point at which the waves pass each other is a zone of constructive interference where the wave amplitude (height) equals the sum of the heights of the individual waves. Notice that after the waves have passed each other going in opposite directions, their heights drop again to what they previously were. Google 'constructive interference', or just 'wave interference'. This is high school physics.
This is a simplified view of course. The actual zone of interference is complex consisting of many waves and wavlets bouncing off various surfaces and producing their own zones of interference. But the basic physics is still the same.
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.

Have to imagine that shippers back in the day probably knew well enough to stay away from the coast until they were ready to go into port.
We were hoping for similar waves some weeks ago but the wind got very much in the way, also, the swell wasn't as big...
maybe friday!
That's one of those videos I could watch for hours and hours, and never get tired of watching!
One of my saved favorites; I'm back again in 2020. I watch this about every 6 months or so. Thanks again.

@@ggexpeditions867 no entiendo por que hablas de pies, yo tengo 2 y no se como comparar eso con una ola 😊
If you look there are people standing on the next hill over.
Comparing the waves to that reference, you come up with about 40' swells that break and peak over 100' high.
That is impressive.
Much higher than 100ft. Scale a person up at 6ft. The cliffs are nearer 250-300 ft I would guess
yes easily 40metres waves
Not quite as they jump a lot hitting the wall but as they hit they go to that height. But this is a normal day. Not a storm. One can imagine.
Wow! 130ft waves?! This has to break a record, right?
Yes, extremely impressive.
It's amazing to think you could be on top of those cliffs and still get wet.
LOVE the big waves... Check out the Giant wave explosions at Shore Acres In Oregon. Also, absolutely jaw dropping stuff!
That is an angry ocean and those cliffs are taken a brutal beating. The raw energy expended on that rock is insane.
It's super fascinating!! It's crazy to think about how long those cliffs have been standing, and how strong they are to resist the power of the sea! Amazing that they don't just crumble away instantly before our eyes, and that just shows how tough the rock really is :D
Finally something in HD !!! ...Thanks ...greetings from Chile !!

great upload OP. thanks. Sagres is beautiful
I was in Sagres 4 times, but only one time i see huge waves like this - only from the south side, not from atlantic. Portugal great country!
NIce first video that actually had big waves that didn't disappoint!
Thank you! Love
.the "Wow"s!! We too get to the coast as often as possible!

Era conhecido como "mar tenebroso" pelos antigos navegadores.(It was known as the "dark sea" by the ancient navigators)
imagine how much energy Portugal could have from these waves
Very good point
I very much doubt this is a daily sea-state, more likely very rare, and no machinery could be set up to utilise this power without being ripped apart.

Notice that after the waves have passed each other going in opposite directions, their heights drop again to what they previously were. Google 'constructive interference', or just 'wave interference'. This is high school physics.
This is a simplified view of course. The actual zone of interference is complex consisting of many waves and wavlets bouncing off various surfaces and producing their own zones of interference. But the basic physics is still the same.

Wow amazing is this by Nazare?👍🇨🇦
No. This is at Portugal's southern-most tip. Nazaré is nearer the middle of the Portuguese coastline.
