Please encourage everyone you know to put there signature to this. Developer must understand the huge negative impact of such an action.

Signed.

I hope the guys leading this fight are directing it towards the authorities and not towards the developers.
The developers don't give a s#$t about surfing and nature.
They are only interested in money.

Hi,
are there any new infos regarding Ponta Preta? I plan a trip to Sal in Feb. 2015 and I´m very concerned about this project. The wave of Ponta Preta is our main reason to go there...

Looking forward to get some helpful feedback! Thank´s in advance!
Joerg
