Lifestyle journalist Veerle Helsen went out-of-office for six months, bought an old camper & travelled along the Spanish & Portuguese coastline by herself. Ever true to her motto ”surf, see, sleep & eat”, she combines three of her passions in this book: surfing, travelling & discovering hidden gems. How about a heavenly holiday mansion where there`s a tree growing through the roof? Or an architectural public swimming pool that`s hidden between rocks & the sea? She searched & found camper spots so quiet she could stay there for days without seeing another soul. Secret beaches that aren`t indicated on the map where you sit back & watch the waves. Veerle Helsen dismisses the classic tourist image of Spain & Portugal & writes about a completely different world. Untouched, fierce & free. With little beach bars serving the very fish they caught earlier that day. With roads wrapping themselves around cliffs & dunes, sheltered by pine trees & maintaining the view of sandcastles on the beach. She drove a large car, her drone beside her on the passenger seat & her surf board on the roof. This guide transcends the cliches & avoids the classic tourist traps. Sea you soon! ” Just imagine: a beach in the middle of nowhere. You can see a camper with sea view. You can hear Portuguese music coming from the speakers. The canopy is out & there are some chairs underneath. On the table is a plate of freshly grilled fish & a glass of vinho verde. Welcome to my surfer`s life.” ” Living to the rhythm of the sea” ” The waves, the flowing shapes, the poetry of the sea: surfing is, in fact, a distinctly female sport.” ...

Surfing: sport of Hawaiian kings & king of aquatic sports. Practiced since time immemorial in the South Pacific, in the 20th century it has conquered beaches all around the world & given rise to many sports born from the imagination & passion of those practicing it. From windsurfing to kite surfing, passing through bodyboarding or tow-in surfing
- which allows surfers, using jet skis, to conquer vertiginous aquatic peaks, impossible to face in the past with just the force of the arms
- numerous technical innovations have allowed the tribe of wave-hunters to increase their numbers. Creative technology goes h&-in-hand with profound respect for the traditional ”cavalcades” inherited from the past, such as Body Surfing, a movement of the body upon the wave inspired by dolphins, or Standup Paddling, done with a huge board maneuvered on foot with the aid of a paddle. This book is a magnificent photographic journey through the history of gliding on waves, enriched by testimonies from top champions in each of the disciplines.
