The kitesurfing centre in Jericoacoara is located next to the superb windsurf centre, fully stocked with the latest Cabrinha kit. The centre is the only IKO recognised kitesurf centre in Jeri Village. The Kite Zone is located just beyond the famous dune area with shuttle, rental, instruction, storage and cleaning service available.
Open All year.
Location
The check in for equipment rental and instruction packages is at the main centre next to Jeri beach upwind of the dune.
Kitesurf Zone
The Jeri Kite zone is the only kitesurfing area in front of Jericoacoara village, located just beyond the famous sunset dune. Due to natural shrinking of the dune this has created a more consistently windy and smoother sailing area. With the wind that has blown downwind, that has created a natural, flatwater lagoon area. This is a separate area from the windsurf zone and it is forbidden to windsurf within 500m from the coast. Kitesurfers who have prebooked rental or instruction can check in at the main centre next to the windsurf zone and then are able to take a shuttle at certain times during the day. More >

A second sattelite mobile centre is provided to store your gear and provide shade and cold water right on the water’s edge. The main centre has a restaurant that is stocked up with snacks, sandwiches, shakes, main course meals, a hot buffet, desserts, ice cream, and more. There is also a bar with a happy hour and amazing views of the sunset. To relax the centre has a green area and sundeck with loungers and music to chill out after a day on the water. The centre provides free WiFi throughout.
