“Bom dia, esse lugar indicado como mangue seco, aqui no guia de previsões, na verdade é um pico excelente de surf, mas fica no litoral extremo sul de Sergipe, pertencente a cidade de Estância, o nome do pico é bananas e fica na praia das dunas, justamente onde indica no mapa, porém está marcando mangue seco, litoral norte da Bahia, por favor, atualizem essas informações, pois o site de vocês tem nos ajudado muito, inclusive as fotos do pico é o de bananas, praia das dunas, obrigado espero retorno”
