Cruz das Almas is a beach break located on Brazil's northeastern coast near Recife, facing eastward into the Atlantic Ocean. The spot sits within an urbanized coastal zone with residential areas, commercial facilities, and industrial infrastructure visible inland. The beach offers relatively gentle conditions with average wave heights of 1.37m, making it accessible for progression. Wind reliability is extremely low at 0.8%, suggesting this is not a primary wind-dependent destination and conditions are often marginal. Average temperatures of 26.3°C provide warm water year-round. The east-facing orientation creates potential for side-shore conditions from northerly or southerly winds. Visibility of urban development and proximity to populated areas indicate moderate boat traffic and some environmental pressures. Best suited for beginners seeking mild wave conditions and warm water, though wind consistency should not be expected. Kiters should check local conditions carefully before committing to sessions, as the statistical wind reliability suggests long waiting periods between suitable wind windows. This spot works best as a secondary option when primary regional spots are overcrowded.
