About This Spot
Intermares Beach is located on Brazil's northeastern coast facing east toward the Atlantic Ocean. The spot features a long sandy beach backed by residential development and patches of dense mangrove forest. Wave heights average under 1 meter with moderate wind reliability of 7.9%, making it suitable for lighter wind conditions. The beach break configuration allows for accessible water entry with gradual depth progression. Current wind patterns average 8 knots, suggesting light to moderate conditions. The spot suits beginner to early intermediate kiters seeking mellow, manageable conditions. Key considerations include timing sessions around stronger wind windows, respecting the vegetated areas as potential hazard zones, and being aware of shallow water near shore. The presence of mangrove forest limits downwind landing zones, requiring careful wind direction assessment before launching. Best conditions occur with northerly winds providing side-shore flow parallel to the coastline.
