this Tuesday nice swell will hit the NE coast...plus a very low tide will make this downwind heaven!

Get out there if you can! :thumb:

amazing waves! Did a downwinder from Pecem to Paracuru...beautiful!

I also passed by the Taiba lagoon, here actual shots from it. It has enough space for 10 riders to have fun, but also works with 15, but then you need to find your space to jump. And it is closed to the ocean.

just perfect party last night at Duro Beach! The location is soooo nice! Great people, great music...stopped at 1 am, then people went to sleep or went to Bacana for the next party!

And now windy again ;-)

Windtown is directly at the beach, has a fun wave in front, which also is a good kicker!
Nice place to stay as well, only downside a bit further away from the center...but still walking distance...and at nights it is still warm and lovely to have a walk!

Another option is Kariri Beach, close to the center, at the beach, very nice pool area, nice rooms.
You need to google it find info how to book it or to get a quote.

wind forecast isn't the best for this week...pretty light, bigger kites needed !
But after those days the wind should be back...at least it is warm ;-)

Cumbuco now has a ATM (cash money) machine in the main village!

In addition to the one at the gas station, at the very beginning of Cumbuco, there is a 24 horas ATM at the bakery, at the upwind end of the main fisher village (close to Duro Beach).
While it says 24 horas...it is only open when the bakery is open... ;-)
