Today, although the reef might intimidate some surfers, you will see people of all skill levels at the spot; in reality, it poses little danger, as the waves at C\u00e9nitz are rarely powerful, meaning the risk of scraping yourself against the reef is low.<\/p>\n\n
The spot works at high tide and is divided into three sections:<\/p>\n\n
-A long left-hander starting from further out on the left side of the break; recommended for beginners, as the reef isn’t very exposed and the wave is well-suited to learning to surf.<\/p>\n\n
-A central surfable wave\u2014breaking both left and right\u2014for intermediate surfers. <\/p>\n\n

The spot works in almost all conditions, with wave heights ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 meters, preferably with an East\/South-East wind.<\/p>\n\n
