Welcome to our jam packed action, kitesurfing coaching adventure in Icaraizinho, Brazil. We have been running surfaris over here for many years now, but it has taken until 2017 to figure out how to offer you the absolute highlights of Brazil in just one incredible location. We believe that we can help you discover this through this action packed week in Icaraizinho.
The sandy bay of Icaraizinho extends for miles both up and downwind. Its tucked 3 hours away from Fortaleza keeping the crowds away so that you can have the water for just yourself and 10-15 others. The wind blows from morning until night generally picking up to 25+ knots around 9am and dipping to 18-20knots around 4pm. As darkness falls the wind pulls back presenting warm, relaxed evenings drinking caiprinhas under the starry sky and softly swaying palm trees.
The kitesurfing conditions depend on the tidal state and these dates are chosen to optimise our time with both flat water conditions and waves, so our days will often be combine both disciplines. In the mornings we will quest to a flat water bay just 3kms away. We will either kite there or take buggys which is included in the price. We will have the idyllic playground for your morning freestyle coaching you on your twin tips.
By the afternoon we will return for lunch right outside the wave spot. The waves break on to a soft, sandy bottom and form around 100m’s out to sea. They build up to head high in size, but are more often about shoulder height. Its here where we will spend our afternoons ripping and slashing the wave boards.
Icaraizinho has some great places just a short ride away so the trip will be interspersed with 2 days of downwinders and trips to flat water lagoons.
For accommodation we stay at the absolutely stunning Pousada Pais Tropical & Casa Guarani nestled amongst the palm trees just a couple of minutes back from the beach. An array of fresh breads, eggs, fruit & pancakes are offered alongside your natural fruit juices & coffee at breakfast. You will have a double room with wifi, fridge and hammocks on your private veranda.
There is a Kite Club where we ride and this is our base during your week. It is where we will store your kit and its just minutes walk from your room. A restaurant, juice bar & hammocks are there to greet you when you are tired and salty and in need of a break.
Your coaching sessions will run daily and can be both freestyle and wave based with the strongest emphasis on morning freestyle. The afternoons sessions will be more relaxed and there to help you to pull off easy foot changes, gybes, tacs and getting spray when riding the waves.
In the evenings we will mix up some cosy bbq’s while watching video footage at the JWC headquarters with other evenings enjoying timeout discovering the excellent restaurants that Icariazinho has to offer.
Allow Jo & George to help you discover this wonderful Brazilian Paradise and go home feeling happier, healthier and more competent then ever before.
