After a long search, we have found a further wind paradise, this time in the state of Ceara¡, northern Brazil. Prea¡ is the name of the small, unspoilt fishing village near Jericoacoara. The beach is huge, the spot ideal for kitesurfing, with winds that blow all day long with a force of 5 - 7 Bft (17 – 33 knots) from June to January.

With an area of 8.5 mill. sq km (3.2 mill. sq mi), Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world and almost half the size of the entire continent of South America. The biodiversity of this fascinating country is breathtaking. Those who are interested in wild life will be stunned by the almost countless species of birds, butterflies and reptiles. Brazil is a land of many contrasts: flooded forests and arid steppes, colonial architecture and architectural insanity in Brasalia, materialism and spiritism, poverty and wealth.

In general, the Brazilians are described as a very proud, religious people who love festivals and dancing, and have a spontaneous, lively nature. Discover this fascinating and unique country: Brazil, land of samba rhythms, caipirinhas, 30 degrees the whole year round.

Preá is the perfect Kitesufing spot!
We found a place next to the well known town of Jericoacoara, only 10 km south. side on shore winds, a wide open empty beach and tropical warm water all year round. One of the most reliable windy places for 8 month a year. Miles and miles of sandy beach. no rocks! Waves, choppy water and flat water. Simply ideal for Kitesurfing!

The average windspeed reaches 15-30 knots from June through January! We recommend kite sizes between 8 and 12 square meters. There are a handful light wind days in December January and June, where you could also use a 16 sqm kite.
Wind: In summer time July-Dec, the wind is very strong but also very consistant. It blows every day! In the winter time February -June the wind is light and it blows on an average of three days a week. The wind is side on shore from the right with minimal current year round.
Waves: Waves are affected by the wind swell and moon phase. Full moon genarally brings the best swell. The biggest waves reach 2 metres. Low tide brings the flattest water conditions.
Special: Guided downwinders ! this is not a trip for total beginners. The downwinders are absolutely spectacular because there are miles and miles of wide open empty beaches... you can play in the waves or simply ride downwind for about 12 km.


Temperatures:
The average temperature is 28-30 degrees year round. There is consitent wind every day between July and January. March - May is considered the rainy season but there is still an average of three days a week of wind! The water temperature is 27 c year round. You don´t need a shorty! Sun protection is very important!
