Prainha Surf Guide
Prainha in Rio de Janeiro is a quite exposed beach and reef break that is often working, although summer tends to be mostly flat. Works best in offshore winds from the northwest with some shelter here from west winds. Clean groundswells prevail and the best swell direction is from the south. Waves at the beach are both lefts and rights as well as left and right hand reef breaks. Surfable at all stages of the tide. It's sometimes crowded here. Beware of - Man-made danger (buoys etc.) - Localism, rips.
