Cassino is a beach break located on Brazil's southern Atlantic coast facing east toward open ocean. The spot features a wide sandy beach with multiple sandbars and bank formations visible in the aerial imagery, creating variable water conditions and shallow areas near shore. The beach is backed by agricultural land and dunes, typical of this coastal region.
The spot experiences modest wave heights averaging 1.2m and relatively low wind reliability at 7.2%, making consistent conditions rare. When wind is available, northerly (0°) winds provide optimal side-shore conditions parallel to the east-facing coast. Average wind speeds of 7.6 knots suggest this is a light-wind location suitable primarily for larger kites and lighter riders.
Cassino suits beginner to early intermediate kiters due to shallow water, sandy bottom, and generally mellow conditions. The extensive beach provides ample space for learning and recovery. However, the low wind reliability means sessions may be infrequent. Kiters should be aware of sandbars that can affect water depth and launch/landing zones. Best conditions typically occur during higher wind seasons; summer months may be particularly challenging.
