This high-angle image captures a vibrant surf scene at a beach in Aljezur, Portugal. The foreground consists of light brown sand transitioning into turquoise and deep blue ocean waters. Approximately 35 individuals are visible within the frame. On the sandy beach, a sparse scattering of about 10 people, including adults and children, are present; some are standing, and others are walking. Two dark-colored surfboards lie on the sand. The majority of activity is concentrated in the ocean. Approximately 25-30 surfers are distributed across the water at various depths. These individuals are primarily on surfboards, which vary in color including blue, yellow, green, and white. Several surfers are observed paddling prone on their boards, positioning themselves for waves. Other surfers are waiting while seated or lying on their boards. At least two individuals are actively riding breaking waves, standing upright on their boards. Multiple sets of waves are visible, from unbroken swells in the deeper water to foamy whitecaps breaking closer to the shore. The ocean water appears clear, with visible wave patterns extending into the distance.
