Laje do Dramin
Edit SpotAbout
Heavy, gnarly wave and away from any hospital.
Atmosphere:
Beautiful scenario with surrounding islands and luxury green/blue ocean. Access by boat only so it can be very exciting.
Additional Info:
Agressive wave, very shallow over the rocks and urchins. Boat access only and I could tell you there could be some hammerhead sharks out there (but they still prefer fish). More of a bodyboard like wave but could be shortboard ridden. PS: 'Dramin' is a remedy for nuts.
