First Time in Palmas del Mar - Just back from surfing Puerto de Galinhas in north east Brazil and heading down to PR for 13-16 March. Will be in Palmas del Mar and need to rent a board and get some advice on where to surf. If you can advise, please drop a line and leave a message / John

Bohio - The locals prefer to call it Bohio! Its a shitty break... and completely overrated! NOT at all for Kamikazees or pros... ive seen a 5 year old surf it. Its only good when a swell comes in. Be prepared to share the wave w/ a fuk load of boogey boarders!jaja... Your better off going to La Pared or Inches. Enjoy!
