Kitesurfing in Brazil
Kitesurf Spots
Tatajuba River Mouth
This spot is right next to our accommodation. It’s a river mouth whose further course ends in the ocean. The entire area is, for the most part, shallow enough to stand in at high tide. At low tide you can just walk to the end of the river mouth and kite in the sea. The wind at this spot is strong and reliable. On really windy days, you can also go to the spot at Laguna La Torta. In spite of the awesome conditions here, there are never very many kiters around.
Our kitesurfing school is directly at the spot with courses for beginners and advanced riders as well as equipment available for rent.
Tatajuba Wave Spot
You’ll find the wave spot just a few 100 meters away from the Pousada, shortly after the river mouth on the ocean side. Here you’ll experience nice kickers in the waves and good cross sure winds. A perfect spot for both wave-beginners as well as advanced wave-kitesurfers.
Downwind Tours (Guriu-Tatajuba & Tatajuba-Camocim)
Tatajuba is a perfect start for downwind day tours. The kitesurf school will transport you to Guriu, and guide you on your tour back home to Tatajuba. You can also start directly at Tatajuba and head down wind direction Camocim. Both downwind tours offer about 15 km with variable wave conditions, everything from one to three meter waves.
Laguna La Torta
The nearby lagoon “Lagoa da Torta” is a famous flat water spot with awesome kitesurf conditions. This beautiful Fresh water lagoon with a big standing range of shallow waters, lays in the middle of the dunes and stretches for 16 kilometers into the land. The wind might be less strong and a bit gusty, due to the surrounding dunes. It is, however, perfect for days when the wind is too strong at the coast.
On the beach, there are plenty of coconut palms and a “Barraca”, (the Brazilian word for small restaurant on the beach.) Where after a successful day on the water or during a short break, you can relax in a hammock and enjoy a cold coconut.
We also recommend that you try the local cuisine—delicious fish and regional specialties at low cost prices.
This spot is about 4 km away from the pousada and reachable by buggy transfer (at an additional charge).
Secret Spot
In the farer surroundings of Tatajuba you can find the Secret Spot, with the ultimate kitesurf conditions. In order to keep it a secret, you can get further information when you are here from our kite instructors at the Pousada… ;)
