Has several distinct peaks, the big part rights, one close to the other, like Que Corta, Primeira, Segunda, Fileira, Peixe-porco, Expedito, Passagem, Lage, Prainha and Praião, and others. Some of them you can connect, and each one has its best tide. Gets really good when the sea is very big, although never gets bigger than 3-4 feet. Sometimes powerful, but barrels are not very common. Not for beginners when it’s not small. Breaks only with a big swell.
In its bests days, the rights can get really long, rippable and crowded.

Général
Itapuca is the best alternative spot when the other beaches are big. It's a good place to learn to surf too.
+
It´s worth it. This type of wave is very rare on the Brazilian coast.
+
It is a magic spot, the localism is friendly but there are some old locals surfer as in any spot ! Altought the rock's bottom the waves breaks in the same way and the rocks are visable, if you drop one the other one is very similar so there are not much risk to crash into some rock.

Itapuca
De TX gringo surfer , 18-12-2008
Texas is a rare break also; how much worse can this paradise be? - When is the best time to plan a surfing vacation in Rio? More specifically I'm looking for the least crowded, most like Jbay w/size matters, & cleanest blue waters! Are the local naked chicks doable, the ones on the clean sandy beaches w/ no tan lines on their sexy bodies, I'm hoping they like Americans from the Gulf of Mexico!! Is Brazilian the same language/dialect as Mexican slang?
iMuchas gracias!
