About This Spot
Mundau is a beach break located on Brazil's northeastern coast, characterized by a sandy shoreline with shallow water extending offshore. The coast faces northeast toward open water, with a moderate-angle sandy beach and visible development in the upper beach zone. The spot experiences consistent but variable wind patterns with low reliability (8.3%), making sessions dependent on favorable weather windows. Wave heights average 1.27m with rough-chop characteristics typical of shallow coastal areas. The spot suits intermediate kiters seeking smaller wave conditions and manageable water dynamics. Key considerations include navigating shallow sandbars and understanding the prevailing current patterns that influence wave formation. Best conditions occur with southeasterly to southwesterly winds providing side-shore angles. The rough-chop nature requires comfort with choppy water transitions rather than smooth conditions. Limited wave size makes this better suited for progression and light-wind sessions rather than wave riding.
Hazards & Safety
Shallow water and sandbanks near shore
Visible structures and infrastructure in upper beach area
Strong currents indicated by wave patterns
Rough chop water conditions
Limited fetch distance due to shallow coastal configuration
Possible submerged obstacles near developed areas
