KITEN - Kitespot Cumbuco
To kite every day in Cumbuco is as naturally as getting a caipirinha in the bar. Because of the steady wind the sleepy Cumbuco became Brazilian kitespot No1.
The sanddunes along the coast are our wind-guaranty. When the sun start warming the sand, the normal North-East-passat is boosted. The constant current of 5 knots (in a distance of 3 km of the coast) aids this effect, too.
During the night, the wind blows offshore, because of the effect, that the ocean is warmer than the land.
Fullmoon-kiting will be an unforgettable experience!
The best time for kiting is June to January - 100 prozent wind-guaranty. From Febraury till May the wind is a little less stable... The constant current of 5 knots (in a distance of 3 km of the coast) aids this effect, too.
The ocean-temperature is always at 27-29 degree, the air 26-32.
All these facts makes us claim: Cumbuco and the whole northwest coast of Ceara is kiters' paradise.
As everywhere in the near the equator, sun-set is at 5:30 in the morning, sun-down at 17:45. It's a really romantic atmosphere to watch the sun going down spectecularly from in the sand-dunes behind our Pousada.
But it's not only the perfect wind-and weather-circumstances that make Cumbuco so agreeable. You will find culinary Highlights for the smallest prices, fresh seafood, great grilled steaks, superb cocktails, a coll beer or two and freshly squeezed juices. That's what kiters need after many hours on the water. Many bars and restaurants to chill and hang out await you.
