Cumbuco
The lagoon that teaches and the sea that challenges
About the spot
Cumbuco became known as the kitesurf capital of Ceará for bringing two different waters together in one village: the shallow, flat lagoon, ideal for the first tacks, and the open sea, with swell and room for jumps and waves.
The village packs schools, inns and restaurants just steps from the sand, so you don't lose time travelling. It's also the launch point of the classic downwinds toward Taíba and Paracuru.
Highlights
- Flat-water lagoon
- Open sea for freestyle
- Schools just metres from the beach
- Launch point for downwinds

Taíba
Fishing village, strong wind and few people
A quieter, less touristy beach than Cumbuco, with strong wind and a sea that mixes flat water near the sand with waves further out. Good for anyone who wants to progress without the crowds of the famous spots.

Paracuru
River, beach and waves on the same day
Between the Curu river and the open sea, Paracuru offers flat water, chop and waves within a few metres. A destination for those already riding who want to vary the terrain without changing towns.

Jericoacoara
The village with no asphalt, and the sunset dune
The most famous village on the Ceará coast: sand streets, the sunset dune and freshwater lagoons ringed by dunes. Strong wind and a setting that has become the postcard of kitesurfing in Brazil.
