The trade-wind machine

The Ceará coast is where the kitesurfing world spends its autumn: trade winds blowing over 90% of days from June to January, ocean warm enough to ride in boardshorts, and beach villages built entirely around the sport. Start at Cumbuco, 45 minutes from Fortaleza airport, where the hotel we list opens straight onto the launch and the family can watch the whole session from the sand.
