About

I think this is a great spot, it is not the best, but it is fun, specially if you are a beginner.. the coolest thing is that you are close to many other beaches that you can find yourself same pretty good waves (Pipa, Artistas, Tabatinga)

Atmosphere:
Girls, bars, party, all kinds of fun.. sometimes the beach is flat, but you can play some soccer with the natives who are extremely friendly...

Additional Info:
This is a pretty fun spot, if you get to meet the locals, ask them to take you to the secret spots behind the dunes, there are some break-points back there and some cool reefs...

Location

Access

Ponta Negra is one of the local urban beaches of Lakes Region, state of Rio de Janeiro... It's a little known place. Maricá is a very extensive town, with a small population. In the Amaral Peixoto highway, Lake Region direction, pass de portal entrance of Maricá (red and blue, corossing the highway, very strange...rsss). After a few km, note the "PONTA NEGRA" entrance, near a gas establishment. Right side....

To find a good surf in this place, try Ponta Negra beach, Jaconé beach (sand and rocks), Praia da Vila beach (sand) and Itaúna Beach (sand). This beaches are in serie, with easy access.

Ask the locals, usually friendly.
