Aleluia breaks over the reefs off Praia do Flamengo, Salvador's last beach before Lauro de Freitas. Peaks go both ways on south swell, with a west-northwest morning wind offshore, and Surf-Forecast users rate it 4.2 of 5 against the rest of north Bahia. The reef makes it punchier than the beach breaks nearby, and the good days draw a crowd. Kitesurfers take over when the trade wind arrives.
