Itamambuca in Sao Paulo is a very sheltered river break that has fairly consistent surf. Winter is the best time of year for surfing here. Offshore winds blow from the north northwest. Groundswells more frequent than windswells and the ideal swell direction is from the south. The river break favours right handers. Surfable at all stages of the tide. It's sometimes crowded here. Overcrowding can even make surfing hazardous.
