More than just a sport, sur ng is a lifestyle, a passion that attracts people from all over the world to some of the most fascinating places on the Brazilian coast. It is no wonder that the ag of Brazil is a mainstay at the main international championships. After all, from north to south, there is no shortage of destinations for those seeking the perfect wave. In this ocean of options, we have spots that range from the hustle and bustle of capital cities – like Rio de Janeiro and Florianópolis – and the north coast of São Paulo, settings for important surfing championships, to paradises of virtually untouched nature, such as Pipa, Itacaré and Fernando de Noronha, where tubular waves up to three meters in size attract surfers between December and March. To catch waves and also enjoy the party scene on the sand, follow the route of the charming beaches of Búzios, such as Geribá, or the cinematic beaches on the Santa Catarina shore, such as Guarda do Embaú and Garopaba. And if you want to go home with some unbelievable stories to tell, surf in the fresh waters during the tidal bore, locally known as the Pororoca, on the rivers of Pará. It is this mix of adrenaline and communion with nature that makes surfing a transcendent sport.
