Situata a nord dell'imponente Promontorio di Nazaré, più noto come "Sítio", Praia do Norte non è vigilata ed è immersa in un ambiente agreste e un po' selvaggio, dove le dune proteggono la vegetazione originaria. Il mare, mosso e pericoloso per nuotare o fare il bagno, è tuttavia molto apprezzato dai surfisti, che trovano qui le onde più spettacolari della costa. Una di esse, alta quasi 30 metri, cavalcata dall'hawaiano Garrett McNamara nel novembre 2011, è stata insignita del premio Maior onda de 2011 (onda più alta del 2011) nell'ambito dei Billabong XXL Global Big Wave Awards. La formazione di onde di tali proporzioni proprio in questo luogo è dovuta alla posizione del canyon di Nazaré, la più grande gola sommersa d'Europa con un'estensione di 200 chilometri e che raggiunge i 5000 metri di profondità. La sua parte anteriore, che si trova a meno di un chilometro dalla costa, influisce sulle caratteristiche dell'ondulazione quando questa giunge da ovest, dando origine a onde altissime.
