Its really not a 4 star spot!!
I've lived 8 years in front of that spot, not in front of the pier since I saw it being built and being removed... When the pier was still up there was a 75% chance you would find some nice, opening fun waves...Many other days i would get there and waves were closing out. Now a days without the pier, i should say its one of the worst surf spots in rio!!! no more good waves...

no pier
there´s no pier anymore. the waves are still good, as it´s a good beachbreak (barra da tijuca) with good sandbars, but the pier used to help produce a nice sandbar.

Ok i'm from florida and the waves in rio make it worth a trip so its not a world class break, but if your a good surfer u can make the best of it. There is a bunch of cry babys on this site.......
