About Itacaré
Itacaré is a town on the coast of Bahia in north-east Brazil, where the Rio de Contas meets the sea and Atlantic forest reaches almost to the shore. Several beaches lie along the coast from the town, among them Praia da Concha, Praia do Resende, Tiririca and, further along, Praia da Engenhoca, and the surf is usually best at Tiririca, where waves break over sand between rocks. The waves are generally described as fast and punchy rather than large. Surf reaches this coast through much of the year, and the most consistent conditions commonly arrive in the southern autumn and winter, typically from around April to September. Itacaré is also widely known for waterfalls, forest walks and river trips inland, and the beaches nearest the town are usually calmer.
