West coast
Has swells from the north and southeast. Coast with consistent waves throughout the year and a variety of point breaks, mostly sandy. Integrated within a nature park, many of the access roads are dirt tracks, making the beaches wilder and less crowded.
The natural beauty of the beaches combined with the great swell will surely make for excellent surfing experiences.

Has swells from the south and large swells from the west. Consistent waves in winter, this region is not only known for its natural beauty but also the quality and perfection of its waves.
