Very consistent - Great rides both in the inside and outside. There`s fun for all (despite the crowds on holidays). Don`t forget to bring back your trash and keep it a cool environment for your children someday. Water can be really cold sometimes, even in summer, so make sure to bring your wetsuits. Cheers!

- This is the best beachbreak in Brazil, sometimes in winter it receives huge swells (i mean up to 15ft/5mts waves).
