Albufeira de Castelo do Bode will once again host the world’s biggest wakeboarding event from August 31 to September 3. The fight for the WWA world title will take place at Praia do Lago Azul in Ferreira do Zêzere, where over four days the biggest names in the sport and more than a hundred amateurs will compete for the titles of world champions in the various categories.

The competition, which has already been held in more than 30 editions around the world, is returning to Portugal eight years after its debut in 2015, precisely in the crystal-clear waters of what is considered one of the world’s greatest water sports treasures. The event is free to all who wish to attend.
