Located in Amapa, Para, and Maranhao, Brazil, Marieta is a pretty good beach break that offers up some fun waves when the conditions line up. The waves here require a bit of skill to surf and break for up to 164 feet (50 meters) over a sand bottom. It takes about a 30-minute boat ride from Salinas to reach the beach.
