This is a good surf spot, altough not the best one in the region. It can sometimes offer you some barrels, but that is not very often.
It works better with middle waves, because when it is bigger then 2m it will most probably close out all the waves.
The best places to surf are Cambaquara (a spot right besides an island located in front of the beach) and the Cantao, on the right corner.
It is not very crowded compared to other spots in the region, but it can get pretty full during the summer.
Atmosphere
Since it is mostly a family-oriented beach, it has a pretty quiet nightlife. But it also means less crowded spots and a better environment with other surfers.

This spot sucks!!! - Hey everyone, How you doing(question) If you doing fine, stay out of this spot, it really sucks and you don't want to loose your time. If you doing bad, keep great distance from here, because you probably going to get here and see shit wind blasted waves and you will get depressed, for real. Just find somewhere else to surf, really. Please, do yourself a favour, do not come in here!!! Well, that's about it, I hope this message was somehow a contribution for your search. Take care, Franco.

Sometimes breaks good - Sometimes at the south side the waves are excelent, but needs a south or big southeast, with northeast wind, with south-southeast-southwest wind forgot
