Summary
The weather and water temperature are always warm, so you can leave your wetsuit at home! The windy season begins in June and stays until February and blows consistently through this entire period. The wind is the strongest August-December. Brazil offers both flat water lagoons as well as small waves and chop. During downwinders you will experience the waves. We will be stopping at different kite spots along the way where you will get to experience the world famous flat water lagoons and rivers to practice your freestyle tricks with the pros! The wind always blows from the same direction: SE-ESE and blows around 20-30 knots depending on the spot. Kite size will depend on your body weight and ability level- we generally recommend smaller kite sizes. Brazil is incredible for both twin tip riding as well as surf/directional boards. I love to use my surfboard during the downwinders and just into the lagoons with my twintip for a freestyle session! The wind blows everyday, and if it doesn’t we can move to the next spot!
The Destination
The Experience
All your kite dreams are about to come true! Nomade Spirit is taking over- you have no other option but to get on board for this incredible adventure.
For us it is about good vibes, teamwork, respect for nature and living a healthy lifestyle full of adventure and fun.
Everyday of the safari is a unique and unforgettable adventure- we will explore the vast, untouched nature that Brazil has to offer with river mouths, lagoons, deserts, wind, wind and more wind!
You will find yourself submerged in a colourful and special country. The people are warm and friendly and make you feel right at home!
During the trip we will eat as healthy as possible. Brazil offers amazing fresh fresh fruits and dishes pack full of energy. After long days on the water we will relax and rejuvenate among the nature. There is no better way of doing that than watching the colours of the Brazilian sunset.
Kiting Level
This trip is not 100% downwinders. We will spend lots of time at different spots with different conditions including flat water, waves and chop.
If you are not an advanced rider you are welcome on the trip and we guarantee that you will have the time of your life. You will learn from the more advanced riders and can take as many kite lessons as you like on the way!
This trip is for intermediate and advanced riders.
Equipment
Wind blows very strong on this part of the world, so we recommend you to bring smaller size kites. You should have 9 (men) and 7 (ladies). If you have an 2 kite sizes definitely bring them with you, so you will be able to kite at any time!
If you have a twin tip board and a surfboard, bring both of them as you will have lots of opportunities to use them both.
Don’t forget your screws, and repair kits just in case something happens! A big board bag that can fit all your stuff will help a lot.
What to Pack
Lycra and sun screen are a must. We will spend lots of time under the Brazilian sun! If you have water sunglasses and a cap it may be of help also. Don’t bring lots of clothing, you will not use it! Just the basics.
The Team
The IKO (International Kiteboarding Organization) certificated Instructors will take you around the vast and unknown beaches of Brazil.
Wind nature and salt water are almost as important as the air we breath. Since we started kiting our lives changed. Now its all about the sport we love and sharing it with the kiting community.
We can't wait to share this amazing place with you!
