Located in Littoral Paulista, Brazil, Bonete is a quality and isolated beach break that offers up some barreling waves when the conditions line up. The waves here require some skill to surf and break for up to 50 meters (164 feet) over a sand bottom. You’ll need to take a ferry to the island and then a drive or another boat ride.
