Samouco
Edit SpotAbout
its a great spot. in the good days its totally epic!! depending of the bottoms, the wave can be better to the right or the left, but normally is to the right. in a week day, u can surf great waves there, great barrels with no one in the water, just u!!!
Additional Info:
the good spot is a lillte north from the car park. u have to walk 5min by foot. but in the good days there are lots of spots in this area
