Day 1 - Leave Fortaleza and drive to Cumbuco. Check into the oceanfront pousada, get in a session outside the hotel, relax for the evening, and get ready for the kite trip of your life!
Day 2 - Kiting begins right outside your door in 80-degree water. Depending on the group, there's also the possibility of doing a 6km downwinder to a 20 acre shallow, sandy bottom, fresh water lagoon where you can enjoy some coconuts and snacks at an outdoor cabana when your done kiting for the day.

Day 3 - Travel up the coast to Paracuru, downwinding along the way. Paracuru is one of the most magnificent kite spots between Fortaleza and Jericoacoara,
often frequented by pros from around the world. There is a reef so at low tide you can kite in flat water on the inside, and waves on the reef.
Downwind Option 1 - (for intermediate kiters) Repeat the downwinder from Day 2, stopping for some fun in the lagoon and continuing on to Porto do Pecem.
Downwind Option 2 - (for advanced kiters) Enjoy big wave riding starting in Porto do Pecem and ending in Paracuru.
Day 4 - In Paracuru you'll have as much time to kite at the spot as you like, and we'll
coordinate trips to the Taiba lagoon and downwinders at the group's preference. Come back to shore for a bite to eat and spend the night.
Day 5 - Another day in Paracuru, believe us, you will NOT want to leave these beaches. Kite the day away, downwind and spend another night here.
Day 6 - Drive up the coast on the sand to one of the 10 best beaches in the world. Jericoacoara is a remote beach that is only accessible
by driving a 4x4 15km along a deserted beach, and where all the roads are made of sand.
Once in Jericoacoara, you will experience some of the best winds in the world due to the unique geographical location.
Spend the evening soaking up the local culture and nightlife and get ready for some of the best downwinders in the world.
Day 7 - Spend all day exploring the secluded beaches of Jericoacoara. You have never seen kiting like this, or dunes for that matter.
We'll head out in the morning by dune buggy and get in downwinders before and after lunch. After the day, come back to the pousada and relax. Kick back with a drink before we head out for great meal with the group.
Day 8 - 9 Another 2 days in Jericoacoara/Prea/Guiru. We choose 2 downwinds per day and eat between them. Waves, wind and summer sun,
you can't ask for more. By night you can dive into the luscious nightlife with lots of bars to choose from, some that stay open till dawn!

Day 10 - Kite in the morning at Prea and have lunch before we depart early afternoon for a 3 1/2 hour drive back to Fortaleza (depending on departure times).
