No better way to travel than with your kite! When we start with our downwinder, we let the 4×4 jeeps ride along the beach while you follow the wind! During the KiteSafari Brazil we will send you past all the hidden lagoons and undiscovered places, with the final destination being surfersparadise and the wild west of Brazil: Jericoacoara! This place is in the top 10 of the most beautiful beaches in the world. During this trip everything is arranged down to the last detail and professional tour guides (guides) from KiteActive go along to show you the way!
Let us know and get ready for the kitesurfing holiday of a lifetime. The wind blows and the waves roll!
If you book this trip, you know one thing for sure. You will get enough kite hours on the water! From June to the end of December the wind blows non-stop between 15 and 30 knots side on-shore. The more we travel north towards Jericoacoara the stronger the wind will get! So bring all your sizes of kites and game-on!
