Additional Information

Get there by car, you can park by the beach. Nice spot with friendly people and easy access. The waves are similar to praia brava, although a bit worse. In a good swell it is possible to get a fine hollow wave

Atmosphere

General

Very good for bodyboarders, since sometimes small waves can provide you with a barrel.
