Guajiru
SPOT CHARACTERISTICS
Being one of the biggest Lagoons on the Cerara coastline means, you can kite the flat water; without having the worries, that you will find more kites per square inch than any place on earth, as the Taiba Lagoon. It can often just be a dozen or less kiters with a large area to practice your jumps, tricks and advanced moves.
From July until January you will find one of the steadiest most consistent winds (trade winds) to be found anywhere on earth. A smooth and steady side shore wind between 20-34 knots, with a warm and temperate climate always remaining above 26°C, means you can be out on the water kitesurfing with no wetsuit needed until your heart is content. As a rule of thumb starting in the south in Cumbuco the trade winds progressively gets stronger until you reach Barra Grande and there can be fluctuations due to localized thermals. So in Guajiru the winds will progressively be getting stronger and your kite size will likely be getting smaller.
Guajiru is a very quiet little fishing village, so perfect for kite, relax and enjoy, oh yes and then kite again. We will have a delightful dinner awaiting after your day of fun under the sun.
