Sergipe surfers call this empty stretch of the north coast their North Shore. Sandbars off the long open beach throw short peaks both ways on south swell, and the bars move after big tides. It catches more swell than Aracaju and holds around 2 m on a good day. Expect to surf alone midweek; bring water, as there is little on the beach.
