Regencia - Linhares - Espirito Santo - Brazil

Show bigger map

An amazing left-hander river-mouth point break that works best with South swell and Northeast wind, good in winter time when the sand bottom is in good conditions.

There are some dangers like fisher nets and sharks by the Rio Doce (Sweet river) mouth. It looks to be a laid back mooded fisher village with incredible waves. A nice surf trip for sure.

Pulau Panaitan, Jakarta, Indonesia

This is the place where the movie 'Second Thoughs' was shot. It is an island located near to Jakarta, Indonesia. The movie is great and show awesome perfect waves in a wild place. A must see. The team stays like one month camping in this remote island, very cool.

The both corners of the island bay have theirs reef brakes shown at the movie. But in Google Earth there is not enough picture definition in order to check the spots closely. But the east shore of the island can be well seen, and in the movie I guess they did not went to that side.

Still plenty of secret spots.

The movie soon will be availabe at surfmovies.blogspot.com !!

The Golf and Pavones area - Costa Rica

Meet the wildlife surfing in Costa Rica.. The famous Pavones point and its surrounds show up with some long-lined-waves that can be easily seen from the satellite. Need a 4x4 and maybe a GPS and you'll surf alone for sure, or maybe with some crocodiles or sharks dividing the lineup. That's CR style, rounded rocks point breaks in the active Pacific ocean with perfect waves.

Aloha to my bro Rodrigo that has been there already.

Doesn't look too lined up like other spots.. Cannot see clear lines via Google Earth. But it looks to be the spot due to the rocks in the shore. Maybe not the right swell direction.

Arica - Chile

Arica - Chile

This used to be an "island".. The spot is the now world-famous rocky point break "El Gringo", where the WCT pro's think twice before dropping in.

Very rocky and shallow waters, a perfect tube riding.. into "La tuberia"..

On the righ corner there is a left-hander point break called "La Isla".

Perfect Chile.

to me it looks like plenty of reef

Ilot Sanchot - Mauritius

"The third known surfing spot is located approximately 15 km south of Le Morne in the Riviere des Gallet in front of the small island Ilôt Sancho. This spot is also not suited for beginners because of the strong current and the shallow water over the riff.

On the Ilôt Sancho there is given local surf competition sponsored by Billabong and Quicksilver once a year in November or December where you can look at Mauritius best surfers." (from http://www.mauritius-guide.net/water-sports/)
