It's no secret that the Atlantic Ocean dishes out more than its share of solid surf, France, Spain, Morocco, Portugal, the list of European hotspots for waves is quite familiar.

Well believe it or not, the Mediterranean Sea is capable of similar feats, despite the fact that it's basically a big salt-water lake.

After a recent score in Morocco, Ben Sanchis and fellow Euro TIm Boal made a risky strike mission to surf the points and reefs near Monaco. Yes, that Monaco. In France, next to Cannes, where you're likely to find more million-dollar yachts than surf boards.

Still, despite expectations, they actually find phenomenal waves. And the clip opens with a night out on the town, which in Monaco means supermodels crowd surfing on inflatable boats and Steve Aoki bringing the house down.

C'est La vie.
