Itapirubá

Itapirubá is a beach break located on the Atlantic coast of southern Brazil, characterized by a sandy beach facing eastward toward the open ocean. The spot features moderate cliffs and agricultural land immediately inland, with a narrow beach strip separating cultivation from the water. Wave heights average 1.17m, making this suitable primarily for beginners and light-wind sessions. The coastline runs north-south, making northerly and southerly winds ideal for side-shore conditions. Visibility in the satellite image reveals relatively clear water with consistent beach access. However, the extremely low wind reliability (0.9%) and modest average wind speed (5.6 knots) suggest this is an inconsistent kitesurfing location that requires specific seasonal conditions or frontal systems. The shallow nearshore areas and visible rocky outcrops demand careful launch and landing zones. This spot suits beginner to early-intermediate riders seeking small-wave practice, though consistent sessions may require traveling to more reliable nearby breaks. Best conditions occur during winter months (June-August in Southern Hemisphere) when wind patterns are more active.
