The story
In The Lusiads, the Portuguese national epic published by Luís de Camões in 1572, Vasco da Gama's fleet is rounding the southern tip of Africa when a monstrous figure rises out of the storm clouds. He is Adamastor, a giant turned into the Cape of Good Hope, and he warns the sailors of the shipwrecks and disasters waiting for those who dare his waters. The Portuguese sail on anyway.
Today Portugal's giants are its waves. Off the fishing town of Nazaré, an undersea canyon focuses Atlantic swells into some of the largest waves ever surfed. In this design the face of Adamastor forms out of a towering wave, beard and hair made of spray, while a tiny surfer races down its face below a clifftop lighthouse. The giant is still there. Now people ride him.
