Ilha do Guajiru

There are so many amazing kitesurf spots around Brazil, most of them amazing in one way or the other, whether it be beautiful accommodations, huge kite lagoons, wave spots, great places to eat, Wing Foiling, and high-standard professional kite schools. However, it is very hard to find all these things in one place and this is what makes Ilha Do Guajiru such a unique place for the ultimate all-around Brazilian kitesurf holiday. The resort works really well for solo travellers, couples or families, although the accommodation choice is important. 

Here is Ilha Do Guajiru the first thing you notice is the stunning flat water lagoon that is created by a massive sand bar; this is an amazing flat water spot. There are some small gusty sections, and at very low tides it is necessary to kitesurf just outside the lagoon (or over the sand bar into the open sea), but on the whole, the kiting area is great with lots of space. As well as this there are 3 other super flat water lagoons a short drive away, or you can visit some as part of a downwinder. There is also one trip here where you can kitesurf in a river estuary amongst a mangrove forest - an incredible experience.  Ilha Do Guajiru is one of the best all-around kitesurfing spots in Brasil, and maybe even in the world!

Other than amazing kitesurfing, there is also amazing food, both in our recommended properties, as well as outside. Just behind the main lagoons beach, there are a number of superb restaurants and small bars; but all quite relaxed - this is not a party town but it does have a great ‘vibe’.

It is definitely possible to spend 7-10 days (or longer) here without getting bored, but Brazil has so many amazing and very special spots, so we do recommend combining a stay here with one to two other locations as part of your trip, if time allows. It is always best to speak to one of the Brazil kitesurf holiday specialists. We have extensive first-hand knowledge of the majority of kitesurf locations in Brazil, as well as other interesting places such as the stunning Parnaíba Delta, the Amazon, The Pantanal wetlands and the cities of Rio and Sao Paulo. We can construct personalised tailor-made itineraries to ensure you get the most out of your Brazil experience. Brazil can be a complex destination to understand and requires good planning, the use of experienced off-road drivers with the correct permits, and it is very important to get the correct accommodation.

Prea

Prea used to be a quiet fishing village but has now developed into a well-established small town that revolves around the kitesurfing scene. In recent years the level of accommodation has become much higher, and a number to great restaurants have sprung up. Prea now has a great vibe, but still not overdeveloped. 

This is a great location to combine Kitesurfing with Wing Foiing. It is also good for all types of holidays, including family (we have stunning 2-bedroom luxury rooms with child care if needed), couples or solo travellers looking for a friendly and social environment.

Here at Planet Travel, we think Prea is the best when combined with one of the other resorts in Brazil, such as Tatajuba, Taiba, Camacim, Icaraizinho or Cumbuco. Also, we run one-week downwinder trips from Cumbuco finishing in Prea!
