Brazil Kitesurfing Holiday Adventure - FAQ's
What kind of accommodation do you provide?
We personally work with several pousadas in the area. All are rated 3 stars. Most are located on the beach and also have pools. You will find massage and spa therapy offered as well. Since our guides will be staying at the pousadas with you, all of your needs will be met.
How will I get around to/from the airport?
Providing you arrive the day of the tour, our guide will be waiting for you at your terminal outside of the airport, from there you can rest assured that you will be taken care of for the rest of the trip. We will take you to all the spots and drive you back to the airport once your kitesurfing holiday has ended.
While on the kitesurfing holiday, what kind of coaching will I receive?
As our Brazil Kitesurfing Holiday trips are for intermediate/advanced riders, we expect you to know the ins and outs of kiteboarding and to already be a self-sufficient kiter. If you are interested in advanced coaching, we do offer this on select trips.

What can I expect from your kitesurfing guide?
Alberto is a veteran Brazilian kiteboarder who has been kiting since 1999. He knows all the best spots in the areas we will be traveling to. He has a long list of satisfied customers.
What is the wind like?
From July through to January each year, we have one of the most consistenly windy places on the planet, due to the unique combination of trade winds, the pressure system created by the Amazon, and additional thermals created by the massive sand dunes along the coast heating up during the day.
The wind in Cumbuco averages around 18kts and averages 20kts in Paracuru. In and around Jericoacoara, the wind is typically 20-25kts in the morning, and 25-30kts in the afternoon, with the occiasional 30kt+ day. 
What size kite(s) should I bring?
For average weight males we recommend brining a 7m, 9m and 12m kite. For an average woman, we recommend bring a 5m or 6m, 7m, and 9m. You will need your smaller kites as we get closer to Jericoacoara where the wind is very strong.
What about kitesurf boards?
You will need to bring your own board.
What kind of food/drinks are available on the tour?
Brazil has amazing cuisine and specialty beverages. We will be stopping for food and drinks along the way up the coast. Breakfasts are included in the kitesurfing tour price. Lunch, dinner and drinks are not included, however very reasonably priced.
What about non-kiting companions?
We have had many non-kiters on our Brazil kitesurfing holidays and they've had a blast! With endless beaches (most with shelter from the wind) they will have a great time in the 4x4s and buggies, or just lazing around.
Jericoacoara has a variety of activities as well, horseback riding, sandboarding and hammock lying to name a few! If they would like to learn to kitesurf while you are on your tour, we have a kitesurf school in Paracuru, our second stop, and can make arrangements for them to continue their lessons near Jericoacoara.
