Itacarezinho is a scenic surf spot on the southern coast of Bahia, Brazil, near Itacaré. It sits on a long, beautiful stretch of tropical coastline with golden sand, lush Atlantic Forest, and powerful waves rolling in from the Atlantic.

Surf character

Wave type: Mostly beach break, with shifting sandbanks
Best for: Intermediate to advanced surfers, depending on swell and conditions
Wave quality: Can be very good when the banks line up
Direction of swell: Works best with south and southeast swells
Wind: Usually prefers offshore light winds, often best early in the morning

Conditions

Itacarezinho can be powerful and hollow at times, but conditions change a lot with tides and sand movement. Some days it offers fun, rippable walls; other days it can be more closeout-prone due to the beachbreak setup.

Setting

One of the highlights of surfing here is the setting: the beach is relatively remote and surrounded by dense greenery and cliffs, giving it a more wild, natural feel than crowded urban surf spots.

Things to know

Can have strong currents
Beachbreak can be unpredictable
Better with some local knowledge to find the best peak
Often less crowded than more accessible breaks nearby, but popularity can vary
