YouTubeWatch on YouTube CustomizeCustomize this spot

Aventureiro is Ilha Grande's most remote surf spot, a south-facing beach that catches swell blocked from the mainland by the bulk of the island. The journey here is an adventure in itself, requiring a boat trip to a tiny fishing community with basic camping facilities. When SW swells hit, the beach comes alive with uncrowded peaks in complete isolation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tide is best at Aventureiro?

The Aventureiro profile does not specify a preferred tide stage. That does not mean tide has no effect: check local conditions alongside swell and wind.

What wind direction is offshore at Aventureiro?

The Aventureiro profile uses wind from NE (45°) as its preferred direction, with an offshore range of 0° to 90°. Wind speed matters too: light winds outside that range can still produce surfable conditions, while strong offshore winds can make takeoffs difficult.

What swell size and direction work best at Aventureiro?

The Aventureiro scoring profile favors swell from SSW (157° to 270°), a swell-height range of 0.9m to 2.5m, and a reference period of 14s. These are model inputs, not guaranteed breaking-wave heights or a promise that the surf will suit every ability.

When is the best time of year to surf Aventureiro?

The main season at Aventureiro is Apr-Sep. Needs swell to wrap around island
