World Waveski Surf Championship 2004 - Brasil      

Florianópolis Island is located in the South of Brazil and is considered one of the most beautiful touristic points of South America, being a “must” for all sports and nature lovers of all World. The island magical athmosphere has early awakened the interest of the Inca civilization who was seeking the promised “Evil-free Land”. Still nowadays, we find in its inhabitants a very warm, peaceful and friendly people. Plus, the natural beauties of the island take the visitors’ breath away. Laid down on the Atlantic Ocean shore, Praia Mole beach is defined,in surfing jargon, as a beach break, with both lefts and rights varying from 2 to 9 feet high. It is located in an environmental reserve mainly composed by a magnificent sample of rain forest. Very near the area destinated to the championship, visitors will find at least 10 surfing spots which break regularly in different conditions.

In this part of the country, the temperature variances are big due to the storms brought by the continental southern winds, however the predominant weather during the month the championship is going to be held is driven by warm currents coming from North. In November, we expect very nice weather (aprox 26º C). Still, it is always recomendable, just to be “on the safe side”, bringing short weatsuits for surfing.Regardless the time of the year, we can definetely say that the night life in Floripa ( as locals call it ) is always hot. Having a good time and making new friends is a guarantee in the islands pubs, bars and discos.
