After the high tide arrived, those present expressed their annoyance and rushed to get up from their resting place and collect all their belongings that ended up wet or under water.

Violent waves in Brazil

Although no infections have been confirmed, similar events have occurred in the Brazilian country, resulting in the loss of a number of people. This was the case on November 5, 2023, when vacationers on Leblon Beach were surprised by a giant wave that left 10 people missing, prompting authorities to mobilize.

The events were relatively expected because sea waves began to rise at 4 p.m., which caused concern among tourists. Meanwhile, the Fire Department confirmed the drownings, without disclosing specific numbers.

The Rio de Janeiro Operations Center (COR) recommends that swimmers avoid surf areas when waves are rough, with water sports prohibited, staying at seaside lookouts and cycling on bike lanes during these periods.
