PEDRA BRANCA

1st WAVE

The first wave of the Reserve is located at the south end of Praia da Empa, right in front of the Ericeira Camping Park.

It is called Pedra Branca because of a submerged stone, lighter in tone than the others, located in the area where the waves form. It is a very fast left with a rocky bottom and which receives ripples from the SO quadrant to the W / NO quadrant. Due to the shallow bank of the reef that is exposed during the low tide, it is usually surfed from mid-tide to full tide. Consistent and dangerous, this wave is characterized by quick starts, followed by tubes to the inside.
