The highlight of Itacaré surf is Boca da Barra, a super-long, fun righthander that peels across a sandbank at the mouth of the River Contas. On a really big S swell, the first section ?Boca? links with Pontal's hollow walls, resulting in a two minute ride!

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
