During 2018 Oceanbirdz will return to Brazil to have an awesome and once in a lifetime kite adventure for two weeks; We start at the Kite Cabana for three days of fun and relaxation and after that… pack our boardbags to have an stunning 12 days kite safari!! <3
During this vacation, we will stay at & visit the well-known fisherman town called Cumbuco. And during the kitesafari from the port of Pecem up to Macapa we will take care of nice and clean pousadas to stay, go to the the accommodation tab to check it out.
This trip is for riders who know how to ride upwind, want to learn better kitesurfing and for those who want to improve their tricks or techniques. With help of downwinders, clinics and many different spots at kitesurf paradise Brazil. Brazil is well known for perfect kite conditions with palm fringed beaches, an average air temperature of 30 degrees and water temperature of 24 degrees.
During the long weekend at Cumbuco we will stay in Kite Cabana including beachbar to leave Europe behind, get used to the Brazilian temperatures and get ready for the real adventure, the beginners / intermediates that need to take some last lessons can take it during this weekend :)
After cumbuco we will move forward with our famous kite safari, why do we call it a kitesafari instead of downwind safari? That’s because we offer a unique experience for all levels! Are you ready for nice downwinders? Go for it! We will separate the advanced kiteboarders in a car so you can kite a big part of the way downwind, and of course we will guide you on the water trough it. Nearly able to ride upwind? No problem, we will take you closer to the spot of that day, so you don’t have to downwind that far. So our kitesafari is for all levels, the only thing we expect is kitecontrol and some upwind riding, as we are not able to teach total beginners during the kitesafari. Although downwind traveling is a cool experience, we do believe it’s even nicer to do loads of spot kiting at different breath taking places and take the time to discover all the spot has to offer, therefore we spend mainly 2nights per stop.
Our Stops during the kitesafari:
°Cumbuco : Welcome Kite & Relax days
°Icaraí de Amontada
°Ilha de Guajiru
°Jericoacoara
°Tatajuba
°Barra Grande and Macapa
°Barrinha

During this trip we’ll start our stay in a little village called Cumbuco. The hotel’s location is perfect: it’s located almost on the beach, within walking distance to the center of Cumbuco, where you can find various shops and a range of local and international restaurants. The Fortaleza airport is only 30 kilometers away and we will pick you up upon arrival.
Cumbuco is a remote fishermen’s village in the northeast of Brazil and has perfect kitesurfing conditions. Just like most Brazilian villages, Cumbuco’s small and cozy center is located around the main square. In the last few years, Cumbuco has become a beloved holiday destination for Brazilians as well as foreign tourists. It’s only crowded in November and around New Year. The rest of the time you’ll find a laidback and tranquil setting.
Cumbuco has a beautiful and quiet beach on one side of town and an amazing landscape of looming sand dunes on the other side. Behind the dunes you have astonishing mountains with waterfalls and tropical vegetation. Fortaleza is the fifth largest city in Brazil with a population of almost 3 million and is about 30K away. Close enough to thrill and far enough to chill!
Kitesafari stops
After Cumbuco we will take you in our 4X4 cars and go on Oceanbirdz kitesafari!
Cumbuco – Icarai
Icaraizinho, in the Ceará state. It’s a small and calm village, with a great variety of spots and kiting conditions on the way: plain water up to small waves and big clean breaking waves from around 1.5 – 2.5 metres in height. Everything a rider’s heart desires ; we will stay there for two nights to have nice kitesessions on the spots all around (punta, Patos, Caetanos); you will find the legendary flat water and wave spot all in one. After full days of kiting there is time for eating freshly grilled fish, relaxing with caipis, watching sunsets and taking a well deserved shower.
Icarai – Ilha do Guajiru
Ilha do Guajiru, a small village existing of a few pousada’s on a row at a big lagoon where you can ride till the sun goes down. Here we will ride, make our a downwinder to Farol, visit some wave spots for those who want and show you the beauty of the deserted Brazilian coast line when we start the drive to our next stop.
Ilha do Guajiru – Prea – Jericoacoara – Tatajuba
Travel info will follow asap.
Tatajuba – Macapa
We will start our day with a drive to get further up to the north. After passing Ilha de Guajiru, Jeri and Tatajuba we will proceed to Macapa. We pass little fishing villages, beautiful sandy beaches lined with coconut trees and reach Macapa while the last hours of sun will give us a golden hour session to end the day.. Here we stay at a sweet pousada and an ice-cold beer or cocktail will be waiting for us. Macapa is in Piauí and is one of the best flat spots of Brazil! It’s a small village near Barra Grande. Again we will stay over for two nights and bring a visit to the amazing spot of Barra Grande, a must see when you join us on this kitesafari.
Macapa – Barrinha
The way from Macapa back to Fortaleza is a long one and therefore we split the trip by spending 2 nights in Barrinha. Here we will prepare a last downwinder, which is perfect to try it for the first time or ride a waveboard if you didn’t before, after the spot search en rides in the surrounding it’s time to relax at the pool and hammocks, enjoy delicious food, pack our gear and unfortunately get ready to head back to Europe.
Car & drivers:
We use Hilux (4×4) and drive over beaches and roads with you. Every traveller has her/his own seat in the Hilux and there is a maximum of 4 per car. If we drive over the beach, we will have a lot of sightseeing and adventure (for example to cross rivers by little ferrys). The Hilux will be with you all the time while you’re kiting. Our drivers speak dutch, german, french, english and portugese. They are very professional and of course experienced kiters. Additionally most are certified IKO Kite teacher and would love to help you learn and show some tricks.
Downwinder:
We will organise small, nice and easy downwinders for all levels. The car will be always on the beach, to provide assistance. We know the coast and know the nicer parts for downwinding and the best kitespots on the way! Ready for the real work; long downwinder to the next spot? Be our guest and join the Oceanbirdz crew on the water.
Breakfast
Big, healthy breakfast will be included daily during the whole trip.
Lunch
Out of experience we know it’s better to have a big breakfast (in the price included) which gives energy for the day, instead of an extra long lunch. While kitesurfing it’s not nice to have a full stuffed belly, therefore we will always have water, bananas, fruits, cookies and little lunch snacks in the car for during the day (included) and at night we go for an early diner.
Diner
We include main dish and one drink every evening during the kitesafari. Sometimes we will have diner in the pousadas and other evenings we will take you out for diner in to the small villages. In Barrinha we will treat you with a nice farewell bbq and at Jeri we give you the freedom to go out by yourself, as there are so many nice places.
Last Day:
At Barrinha we organise a nice goodby BBQ and little farewell party. And the next day, you can stay in the pousada, relax, kite again, wash the kitematrial.. wathever you want, until we will pick you up for the airport transfer.
