Flamengo surf FAQ

Is Flamengo good for beginners?+

Flamengo is a reef break over mixed, usually breaking in the 2.1–6.3m range, and how suitable it is for beginners really depends on the size and power on the day — not a fixed label. Set the level to Beginner above and WaveCheck flags the smaller, cleaner hours worth paddling out for.
