This trio of kitesurfing gems lies right in the heart of Ceará’s wind corridor, where the steady “Leste” trade wind delivers near-perfect conditions from July to December. Expect 18 to 28 knots of consistent side-onshore breeze almost every day, building gently from late morning and blowing strong until sunset. The wind here is remarkably smooth, shaped by the mix of ocean, lagoons, and river mouths that define the coastline. With air temperatures around 30 °C and water near 27 °C, there’s no need for a wetsuit — just pure tropical sessions. Whether you’re chasing butter-flat lagoons in Parajuru and Barra Nova or small, clean waves in Uruaú, this stretch of coast offers ideal conditions for freeride, freestyle, and downwind adventures under endless sunshine.

This stretch of coastline south of Fortaleza offers a beautiful mix of flatwater lagoons, tidal rivers, and gentle ocean waves — making it a playground for all styles of riding. In Parajuru, the wide river mouth forms a massive lagoon with buttery-flat water at low tide, perfect for freestyle and freeride sessions. Just up the coast, Barra Nova delivers similar conditions in a more compact setting, with shallow, glassy water sheltered by sandbanks — ideal for progression and advanced tricks alike. Meanwhile, Uruaú adds a touch of variety with open-sea conditions and small, clean waves for surfboard riders. You can even connect these spots via a downwinder, gliding along untouched beaches backed by dunes and palm trees. Whether you’re chasing flatwater perfection or small wave sessions, Parajuru, Barra Nova, and Uruaú deliver pure, wind-filled freedom.
