More about Faja do Araujo surfspot
The only wave on the east coast and pretty much reserved for experts only. Needs a huge NW swell of at least 15' to start breaking at half that size as it refracts thru 90º. Once it clears the big rocks that litter the line-up, serious big water drops lead into cavernous barrels over tricky slabs of rock. When it is on, it's a world-class freight train for hundreds of metres and the best wave on the island. Low to mid tide only.
Can be checked from the miradours to the south. Logging road to a few houses then half hour walk up the rocky shoreline. Difficult entry and exit to the water from the rocks 15 minutes paddle south of the point.
Extremely isolated and a mission to get to. Can be checked from the miradours to the south. Logging road to a few houses then half hour walk up the rocky shoreline. Difficult entry and exit to the water from the rocks 15 minutes paddle south of the point. Very low consistency.
