Cae Galvao from Brazil

“The Boraceia beach is very good spot for long boards. It's normal to have waves in any kind of swell. The best is from southeast with east wind. There is a secret spot in the left side (Bora Bora) that works with a swell from South (more than 10 s) combined with an east wind (off shore - Terral), the results is a perfect left and long wave.
I advise you to leave your car in the parking area and avoid that somebody steals it.”
