Lagoinha do Norte

Lagoinha do Norte is an N-facing beach break in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil. It picks up swell from NE to SE, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 64% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the S: light winds or S breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while N onshores chop it up.
