Juquehy is a popular surf spot on Brazil’s São Paulo North Coast, in the municipality of São Sebastião. It’s a beautiful beach break known for its consistent waves, tropical setting, and lively surf scene.

Surf conditions

Wave type: Mostly a sandy beach break
Best swell: Works best with south and southeast swells
Wind: Offshore winds from the northwest can clean up the waves
Skill level: Can suit a range of surfers, but conditions can get powerful and fast when the swell is up

What the waves are like

Juquehy often produces punchy, hollow beach-break waves with both lefts and rights. On smaller days it can be fun and mellow, while larger swells can make it more challenging and heavier, especially near sandbars and rip currents.

Best time to surf

The best season is generally autumn to winter in Brazil, when south swells are more frequent and the waves tend to be more consistent. Morning sessions are often better because winds are usually lighter.

Beach and atmosphere

Juquehy is a scenic beach with a mix of surf, tourism, and local charm. It’s known for being cleaner and more upscale compared with some neighboring beaches, with good infrastructure, restaurants, and easy beach access.

Things to keep in mind

Currents and shore break can be strong
Sandbars shift often, so wave quality changes
It can get crowded on good surf days
Always check local conditions before paddling out
