The Surfer Statue in Portugal is a monument to salute local surfers and the culture it brings. Located at Peniche Beach, this 9-meter high bronze sculpture is a representation of an erect surfer, looking out at the horizon. The Statue stands proudly on the seafront, and offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. Perfect for photographers looking to capture memorable landscapes, and adventurers looking to watch the waves hit the sandy beach. Locals have named the statue ’Canteiro’ in homage to surfing characters-- both living and non living-- that have made surfing a cornerstone of the Peniche beach. It also serves as a reminder of the power of nature, of the energy and joy of living.
