context_page_description: Supertubos is a wave and beach located in Peniche, Portugal. The break offers world-class surfing conditions with its curvy waves and hollow powerful tubes, and is the site of the MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal the World Surf League Men's Championship Tour event.
  The wave did not come into mainstream international spotlight until the Rip Curl Pro Search Event in 2009. It has been qualified as having 'Totally Epic' quality as a wave. It's open swell window to the powerful storms that rage through the North Atlantic, protection from the northerly winds that often plague the coast, and a unique bathymetry all come together to make Supertubos one of the best beachbreaks in the world.
