Additional Surfing Infos
 This is the beach where WCT Brazil sets up every yaer. When it's big it is compared to Sunset - North Shore, Oahu. Holds 15ft tall smilling like a child, a big ramp to both sides, rights and lefts. It never closes out and it has a very generous canal to paddle in/out. So you can always reach the line up, even when it huge. Like Campeche Rights, Joaquina, Silveira and Guarda do Emabú, Vila composes the Top 5 of Santa Catarina.
  Overview
  Atmosphere Great spot, one of the best brazilian waves.
You can surf it with 3 feet and also with 15 feet+ !
  General - Place of the WCT Brazil event.
- The wave starts fat and goes through a hollow section, sometimes barreling.

Underrated
This spot is underrated. It is, along with Guarda, Silveira, Saquarema e Cacimba do Padre, one of the best of Brazil. It worthes at least four stars. Watch out the localism. Holds big swells, easy access, easy to get to the lineup, paddling close to the island near the beach.
