Located in South Bahia, Brazil, Jeribucacu is a quality beach break sculpted by a river that offers up some rippable waves when the conditions line up. The waves here require some skill and break for up to 100 meters (328 feet) over a sand bottom. It takes a 9 km drive followed by a long walk to get here.
