The next 7 days. Each day's wave height, green on a good day for intermediate surfers. A spot that does not suit them is tagged with the level it suits and never goes green for them. The best of the spots that stay in Maceió each day wears a ★ Best badge, only on a Good day. 1 spot stays in another town: within your drive, it counts for Maceió too.

Distances are in a straight line from the middle of Maceió, to spots that land joins: none across a bay or on another island. A drive marked "about" is our estimate: the straight line times 1.8 minutes a km, measured on the drives we have routed (half of those come within 21% of the routed time).
