On Brazil’s endless coast, there are more kite beaches than one could count. But we went in search of a beach with that perfect combination of ripping wind, a vibrant community, and breathtaking sunsets. We couldn't quite settle on a favorite, so in this edition we're covering the kiteboarding beaches of Prea and Jericoacoara

Last time, we covered the Brazil downwinder experience with Surfin Sem Fim. After exploring 200km of Brazil’s northeast coast on a big downwind adventure, we needed to park our kite bags in one spot for a while! So we settled into a beachfront bungalow at Rancho do Peixe where we could have some kite sessions right out front on the ocean or take a short buggy ride to that famous Brazil flatwater.

A kiteboarding trip to Brazil is one that will be etched in your memory forever. You may find yourself planning your next trip back as soon as possible!

Whats the name of the lagoon?
I didnt get this acoustic..

[svengarbe]

Sorry, but distance between prea and barra grande lagoon is about 180 km. quite hard to get there in 15 min. Even with a buggy. ;-)

Is 4x4 car needed. How is kiting in Jeri?

[MsUtopia]

En jeri está prohibido hacer kite, solo tienes un sitio pequeño, los mejores spot están en paracuru. praia de macapa y athins. Todos a unas horas de jeri.

Ok help someone. so im ex bullrider. lol no nothing about sailing except tacking. How you go one way then whoop around and go back the other so easy if wind is going one way. Your kite automatically goes into tacking mode or wtf? Pretty neat stuff. Im obviously clueless...
