Ventus Kitesurf (Cumbuco, Brazil) ★★★

Location Brazil, Ceará: Cumbuco, Taiba, Paracuru, Icaraí, Ilha do Guajiru, Jericoacora, Barra Grande, Atíns

Paracuru
Paracuru is the local riders' favorite—known for its consistent wind, laid-back town, and mix of conditions. You’ll start the trip here, getting warmed up on a spot that works for all levels. There's a sandy bottom, mellow wave zone, and flat water inside the reef depending on the tide. Bonus: sunset local drink and fresh grilled fish after your session? Yes, please.

Vibe: Authentic, breezy beach town
Conditions: Small waves, flat inside the reef (tide-dependent)
Level: All levels welcome

Taíba
The progression playground. Just a short drive away, Taíba is a dream come true for anyone wanting to level up. There's a flat water lagoon perfect for practicing transitions, jumps, or just cruising confidently. This is the spot where people tend to have their “aha!” moments on the water.

Vibe: Quiet village with a pro-kiter soul
Conditions: Flat lagoon + wave options nearby
Level: Great for progression and coaching sessions

Icaraí
The hidden germ you didn't know you need. This coastal town is where time slows down. You’ll find open beaches with plenty of space to ride, warm water, and a sleepy vibe that invites you to just be. It’s perfect for relaxed sessions, sunset hangouts, and reconnecting with yourself or new friends over a post-kite coconut.

Vibe: Calm, peaceful, authentic
Conditions: Open sea, easy downwinder transitions
Level: Intermediate-friendly but works for all levels

Ilha do Guajiru
Brazil's flat water heaven. This is one of the most famous flat water spots in Brazil—and for good reason. A huge lagoon opens up at low tide with glassy water and steady wind, ideal for improving your skills or going full freestyle. We stay just steps away from the lagoon, so you can ride, chill, repeat. It's also where the crew starts to feel like a little family.

Vibe: Kite village right on the water
Conditions: Huge tidal lagoon, flat as a pancake
Level: Beginner to advanced—everyone loves it

Guriú
Nature’s final gift before Jericoacora. Guriú is raw and beautiful. You’ll kite along untouched coastline, pass through mangroves, and finish your session in a place that feels like the edge of the world. It's the perfect mix of peaceful nature and a little adventure. Plus, we'll toast to the end of the ride with a drink under the stars.

Vibe: Wild, remote, full of soul
Conditions: Flat water, calm river lagoon
Level: All levels - great for progression or unwinding

You wake up to the sound of palm trees rustling in the breeze and the smell of fresh coffee brewing. There’s a coconut waiting for you, cracked open just minutes ago. The sun’s rising over the dunes, and your kite is already dancing in the wind.

Each day here brings something new—gliding past wild beaches you’ve never seen on a map, sharing laughs with the locals over grilled fish and cold fresh juices, and riding until the sun melts into the horizon.?

But it’s not just about the kiting or wing foiling. It’s about the people you share it with, the feeling of unplugging, and the way we slow things down to really enjoy the moment. One night it’s dinner under the stars. Another it’s a slow river crossing to a remote fishing village, where we’re welcomed like old friends.

This trip is for you if you're craving more than a vacation. You're ready for connection, for wind in your hair, salt on your skin, and a rhythm that feels like freedom.

Welcome to Brazil. Welcome to Ventus.

Small group, big connection
You’re not just another name on a list. We keep our groups small so everyone gets to connect, ride at their level, and feel like part of the crew

So much more than kiting & wing foiling
Secret spots. Slow travel. Local stories. You’ll leave with full memory cards, a full heart, and probably a few new lifelong friends

About Us

"My name is Carol. I’m the founder of Ventus—where unforgettable kitesurfing and wingfoiling adventures come to life.

I’ve always been obsessed with chasing the wind, discovering new spots, and sharing the stoke with others. Over the years, I’ve lived in some wild and beautiful places—Brazil, Colombia, Kenya, Zanzibar, Madagascar—and along the way, I’ve kited in epic conditions, met incredible local communities, and soaked up every bit of the adventure.

Starting Ventus was my way of blending everything I love: riding, exploring, connecting with people, and creating experiences that go way beyond the usual trip.

Ventus is about more than just great wind (though we’ve got plenty of that). It’s about sunsets that make you stop and stare, dinners under the stars, fresh coconuts after your session, and the kind of moments that stay with you long after the trip ends.

Whether you're just starting out or you've been riding for years, you’re welcome here. We bring together riders of all levels to explore, ride, and experience the magic of each destination—from the wind to the culture to the people.

Let’s ride the world together."
