The Trip
We change spots every 2-3 days to follow the wind, with a downwind planned depending on conditions to ride together for several kilometers.
We stay in local pousadas where breakfast is always included.
Lunch is usually on the spot, and dinner, depending on the group's mood, is either at a restaurant or back at the pousada.
And when the mood is right, the caipirinhas flow for proper Brazilian nights.
What's included
- Accommodation in guesthouses throughout the trip
- Organized transport between spots
- Coaching and video analysis
- A supervised downwind day
- Breakfast and 3 dinners
The spots
Cumbuco. The starting point of the trip, just 30 minutes from Fortaleza airport. It offers miles of beach and the Cauípe lagoon right next door, perfect for all levels and for getting back into the swing of things straight off the plane.
Taíba. A neighboring village with a shallow lagoon, ideal for freestyle and progressing with peace of mind. More experienced riders will also find great waves around Taibinha and Morro do Chapéu.
Downwind from Icaraí to Patos. About a dozen kilometers of waves and flat-water stretches at high tide, passing the mouth of the Moitas river and its mangroves, before a well-earned break on Patos beach.
Preá. About fifteen kilometers from Jericoacoara, one of the windiest spots in Brazil: strong, consistent wind from July to February, for the joy of riders who love feeling that pull.
Jericoacoara. The highlight of the trip: a village tucked between dunes and a nature reserve, a sheltered flat lagoon just behind the famous sunset dune, and wind that blows non-stop from morning to night.
Ceará and its activities
Here, the wind is pretty much guaranteed: no need to plan backup activities for the days without sessions. Between outings, it's mostly about a fresh coconut or a caipirinha, some pool time, or simply Ceará's paradise beaches.
