Location
Loading...Access
From mainland, take the SC-401 highway, hading Canasvieiras beach. When you get the Canasvieiras district, drive all the way to the left, so you reach the Canasvieiras and Jurerê beach corner. There you surf. That's why people call it "Canasjurê". The waves is fast, long and break very close to the sand, like a point break. The only problem is it needs a huge, monsters east swell to pump, whit south wind blowing calm. In other words: it pumps once in life, once in death.
