Nic von Rupp launched the second season of his awesome surf-slash-travel series, “Portugal Back to Back,” over a month ago, and we’ve been hooked ever since.
So far, the Portuguese big wave surfer has taken viewers to the regions of Aveiro, Oeste, Peniche, the Azores, and Algarve.
In the latest, and sixth episode, von Rupp continues his quest for beautiful places and epic waves in the region of Minho. He links up with young charger, Salvador Couto, and surfs with blind surfing world champion, Sara Paço. Von Rupp calls Minho, “One of Portugal’s best-kept secrets.”
Von Rupp captioned the episode above”
