If kitesurfing had a spiritual homeland, Brazil would be high on the list. With warm water, steady winds, and some of the longest downwinders on the planet, this South American paradise is a must-visit for kiters of all levels. Plus, let’s be honest—who doesn’t want to kite past palm trees, sand dunes, and caipirinha-filled beach bars?

The magic happens from July to January, when trade winds blow consistently at 20-30 knots almost every single day. No need for wind forecasts—just wake up, grab your gear, and hit the water. The water is warm, so leave your wetsuit at home.

Brazil’s kitesurfing capital – Cumbuco, just outside Fortaleza, offers flat water, strong winds, and legendary downwinders. It’s a great place to start your kite trip, meet other riders, and perfect your tricks at the famous Cauipe Lagoon.

Jericoacoara, also known as “Jeri,” this spot is as much a lifestyle destination as it is a kitesurfing paradise. Expect steady winds, sand dunes, and a laid-back vibe where flip-flops are considered formal wear.

Just next to Jericoacoara, Preá boasts even stronger winds and wide-open beaches, perfect for freeriding and boosting massive airs.

Icaraí de Amontada – A hidden gem with uncrowded beaches, strong winds, and a mix of flat water and waves—great for those wanting a break from the busier spots.

Located further north, Barra Grande is a dream for freestyle riders, with butter-flat water and epic downwind opportunities.

Want to kite through a surreal maze of lagoons surrounded by white sand dunes? Welcome to Atins, the gateway to Lençóis Maranhenses National Park—one of the most unique kitesurfing spots in the world.

If you love strong wind, warm water, and never-ending downwind adventures, Brazil is the place to be. Just don’t blame us if you “accidentally” extend your stay for a few extra months!
