Windsurf Rental pONTA LEME
ION CLUB Ponta Leme is located on the East side of the bay of Santa Maria and is about 15 min walk from the ION CLUB Santa Maria. In front of the center there is a more constant wind and it is also the best way to get to the wave spot which gave its name to our center. The shorebreak is normally weaker here but indeed we offer our shorebreak service at both centers.
Our ION CLUB Center in Ponta Leme is equipped with a wide range and large quantities of the latest Fanatic Boards and Duotone Riggs. As our guest you can choose between a fix board rental option or a more flexible variation of different boards to use during your stay with us. No matter which option you opt for, you can be assured that the equipment provided will be in top condition making your windsurf experience with us as pleasant as it possibly can be.
