"The lady and gentleman, we wants arrive at our destination Porlamar del Carribe in a few minutes. Please fast your seatbelt!" The announcement of crew Cabin tore me from my dreams. Whether I at last have created it? Whether there was I on removal only a few minutes from Freestyleparadies El Yaque? Quickly I once again tightened my belt of a seat before the car on to the earth softly put on.

At the introduction of a ladder of flight the warm wind blew at once to me on the person. Now I could forget definitively wet-cold weather in Germany.
I should get used only to warm conditions, nevertheless, I have tested just cold North Sea. However, at temperatures nearby 30 °C and to the dark blue sky I knew, why I took long road of East Frizsky islands to absolutely after El Yaque on me.
After I was welcomed in my first evening with a wonderful sunset in El Yaque, affairs went equally next day on water. Though water was really rough, but at temperature 27 °C and 30 °C temperatures of air I very, perhaps, I can not complain.
Impellent level on water in general was very high. It was resulted Gollito, Andre and Antxon which motivated me at once with its way of driving. When I observed a little 15-year-old Locals which learnt only in 3 weeks Moves, for what I required in one year, I definitively understood, why El Yaque crowned to Freestyleparadies.
As not only warm temperatures, but also a constant wind from January till May do it by ideal district of training. And as I had a wind for 5ого sails during my all stay every day, I can confirm only backdating windy statisticans.
After session on surfing which went mostly to a sunset, there was almost every evening an arrival to Happy Hour a bar. Spirits as Choco-Monkey or Caipirinha, were not only are very good, but also were favorable devilishly I always should observe, that I forgot a supper not completely.
As the tourist budget had its borders, quartierte I me at Mike in Elyaquemotion one. It was not only is very inexpensive, but also I am pure also felt made immediately friendly. The big roof-terrace on which we fed us every evening and which was a meeting of all inhabitants is Most especially worthy mentions.
That concerned a night life in El Yaque, I have been adjusted sceptically at first a little. As in Beachbar Gaby's Voodoo a hall the same music, and also Habana club which directly was in Elyaquemotion ran to billiards and Dart almost every evening, should not order much more.
Nevertheless, really good party in style of a reggae with Live music in Gaby's and solemn opening of reconstructed lot Piratas overpersuaded me, then, however. And in the next morning I became angry not too very much, that the wind always increased only at midday in force.
While we moved only in the evening in a bar direction, Margariteneos looked, first of all, on target already by noon sometimes a little too deeply in a glass. The car in the car stood directly on a beach then with rattling basses and passengers used Caipis and local polar beer.
It should be, perhaps, small first representation for Easter Semana Santa if before only dancing human weights some schools of surfing establish its enterprise.
In one week El Yaque it was necessary to change a preview trailer in time. I went on friends to a river mouth which offered absolute shoal, but badly smelt so as strongly foul place, that I pressed down a mouth and a nose before each leaving in despair.
Locals tried to convince me that the stench of seaweed would arrive, however, my stomach proved me some days something other. Though I completely have not been cancelled after these Sessions, nevertheless, I undertook better in search of new places to Freestylen.
I found a true ideal preview trailer then on a few days later in bushes to wood. At bottom of mountain CАН of Juan the huge lake of salty water which has been connected by small waterways with the sea was stretched.
And one of these mouths I pumped out me from squall to the following as dense bushes wood filtered all wind. As soon as I have reached, however, lakes, true Freestyleparadies extends before my eyes.
Türkiesfarbenes And, first of all, neutral under the relation to a smell the water framed bushes and rocks, allowed me and to my friends to true jumps of pleasures to decline. This preview trailer delivered us excellent conditions of training to Freestylen.
The it is more entrusted me a preview trailer and local were, which undersigned for reception of my not too good knowledge of the Spanish language always an affable smile, the put my departure came nearer to me more close. In 3 weeks strongly required material again developed and carried in the cart in an airport direction.
When then the car rose for dark night about Isla de Margarita in a direction of Germany, I rejoiced already to the moment if it is again informed: "Welcome on board on our flight to Porlamar del Caribe...!"

- Edge Maspalomas
- A beach of the Eagle
Vargas:
The stone beach from a few sand in low inflow and outflow, the conditions similar to conditions of the Left Well, but usually with a wind is slightly weaker (for two metres of a comet).
The wind - side-shore a left-hand side and usually is more wave, than in the Left Well.
In low inflow and outflow it not the dangerous beach, but in high inflow and outflow is strong enough sorebreak which it breaks on stones.
It is a beach where usually is enough windsurfistas so a zone kite - half of beach downwards (lee side) as in this zone usually there is almost nobody doing surfing. There are no cartels which it would signal, but you convince that go half downwards.
To arrive it is necessary to go because of old highway and between Crossing Arinaga and sedge Thickets, you will see a rotunda (Mountain Vélez) with a sculpture which you are three sails of surfing (to see a photo) there take an exit in your right part and each rectum to a beach, it is not heavy to arrive and there is no parking problem.
The left well :
It does not become kite on the beach of the Left Well, it is not allowed to do kite on this beach so it is floated in the second blindage, also, called Whale Beach who besides is better for kite as the wind - side-shore and not on-shore as in the Well.
The beach of stones and the rock placed precisely under a gulf of the Left Well, it approaches close because of small highway which leaves fair opposite to Avaricious shop in the Left Well, and in the end of highway (500m aprox). There is a soil road which arrives to the sea.
The wind - a trading fortress both every day within summer and is less than wind and is more irregular in the winter (to see the Left Well in surfing section), sometimes there is a good wave for surfear, but there is strong enough current in the same direction, as a wind and also it is necessary to be cautious with hedgehogs.
Juan Grande:
The located beach of stones of 5 Km on the Well south, approaches close because of old highway and - the first settlement, that you go to the south, but it is necessary to take soil road a little before arriving to Lock Romeral, to see map*.
It is not heavy to arrive, but it is necessary to be cautious with car soil road.
This advertising film roller usually does not function summer months, usually trading does not arrive on the south in the summer, but yes in the winter and the coat so when the wind - is little bit more E (between side-shore and side-onshore a left-hand side), also functions with wind S (side-onshore the right party).
It not a dangerous place but if there are waves, in high inflow and outflow they very much orilleras, also it is necessary to be cautious with a wind (a coat in the evening) if it starts to be put very much racheado and with squalls almost without a wind the matter is that it will be very soon cut off, if you do not leave fast, you will leave floating.
Curve:
The stone beach placed after a beach Juan Grande and before Aeroclub, the conditions similar to conditions Juan Grande, auque a wind, maybe, a little more constant and is a little to enter and leave easier water as usually there is less wave also, than in Juan Grande.
Concerning intensity of a wind and directions which it enter, it is the same, than in Juan Grande.
To arrive, it is necessary to go because of old highway and in a straight line which was moved by Juan Grande (going with the north to the south) and before arriving to a curve which is eventually, you will see, that there is an exit in soil road which goes to the sea, it somewhere here, it is necessary to have a few cares with car, but there is no problem to arrive to park.
Equally as Juan Grande, not a dangerous place and besides a wave more softly also is less hedgehogs.
Burrero:
The stone beach in which it approaches close from Thickets of a sedge and undertakes an exit in Burrero, remarkable enough, approaches close easily and parks on a beach. It functions with wind NE.
The wind - side-offshore and usually is little bit less, that in the Left Well (as in Vargas) and with big sea N or coat NE is a good and fast wave though it is enough of it about coast and it is not necessary to jump.
It not a dangerous place (if only the wave was not big), but in low inflow and outflow it is necessary to be cautious with hedgehogs.
Jinamar:
Beach of the located sand of 5 km in the south Las Palmas, it is necessary to take an exit of an autosection car of the same name, once there to arrive to a beach not a problem and parks near to sand. At all it does not happen to you to leave nothing in the car.
It functions with wind N and with, side-onshore a left-hand side and side-shore the right party accordingly.
It usually does not function in the summer though it can N leave weak in any day, it is faster a winter advertising film roller.
There is no problem to enter leave, the wave breaks in a sandy shallow, in low inflow and outflow it can be enough bolt and though a beach long do not drop you much in a lee side, an exit because of rocks from here not a choice.

Sandy beach of the big sizes (dune Maspalomas), which considers a zone limited to do kite (it is not allowed to do kite outside of cartels which differentiate a zone) that remains fair in which this edge of dunes, that the curve offers some possibilities of orientation to a being for each wind.
Dominating winds in this zone - in the summer thermal which comes from the south, usually too weak, but sometimes are considered sufficient by intensity and in the winter wind E, and S, with wind S if these aside N edges you be cautious as it offshore.

To arrive there is no problem, the tourist zone was well signalled to a being and to park, eat a dark blue zone if you do not get ticket, there is a safe penalty.
4 weeks Vargas!
3:14 AM
Abele Manfrin
I have created the most difficult task: to Convince my chief, that I require holiday in July of 4 weeks. As it was content since some time with my passion on surfing, he agreed also this time and I could plan - 4 weeks Vargas!
Last year I have spent there 14 days with 2 girlfriends, a combination from a foreign language lesson in first half of day and navigation in second half of day. I wanted it toppen, so I have once again reserved all program: the Small house in the Canary style located in beautiful mountain small town , plus of 4 weeks of a course of the Spanish language.
Accordingly 2,5 ч. Individual training in first half of day and a word study in the evening, meanwhile there was sufficient time for navigation. That I did not clasp my things on surfing at 7 forces of a wind on a roof, I afforded a small minivan in which I was able all simply reinwerfen.
It would clarify in droplet Canaria that are welcomed already at an exit from the pilot of a trade wind... And in 4 weeks of long airing also again accepts!
When I unpacked things on surfing in Vargas in the first morning full inspiration, again cleared up for me, that I was in Spain: Not the person on a beach or on water, simply too early. It is indifferent, all gulf for me. Outflow was on advancement, so excellent conditions as waves become is better then.
Approximately for 1 ч. Before outflow there are from my point of view the finest waves which can be gone round then really well. Training Aerial is optimum possible then. Only if at low level more and more Close raise breaking waves out of a fashion round number in a washing machine, it becomes labour-consuming a little.
After the first session on surfing my level of adrenaline laid down a little, it still threw back all and I had a super great pleasure.
Slowly Locals and some tourists came. Small greetings of a meeting and I felt me again completely is integrated.
If as the girl technically on surfing only on road, is already better it if once one looks after one. Locals, presents Canaries, super are pretty and ready to help - Locals without Localism!
2 especially well went, I could examine Frank and Juan Carlos, at them all program of maneuver and to take away some instructions. Marko Peres trains also almost every day in Vargas. Unfortunately, there were no many girls on water.
The present rare phenomenon is unconditional Nayra Alonso. As Local it went every day tirelessly and trained for competitions. In July it was even 4. In Freestyle on Fuerteventure.
Something in this sort also encouraged me. Not, as I wish to win competitions and as it simply cheerfully to push itself with other girls. Besides, Nayra it is very pretty and at all ambition to it simply notice pleasure in navigation. And, however, it always the most important!
In the end of the second week I have started to practise Backloops - for Frontloop courage still does not satisfy. Uncountable gossips of a back were result. I had a first correct success within last days my stay. At last, completely around, though yet did not admit, but looked already after Backloop.
My teacher of the Spanish language could examine then every morning my new wounds. My thin Shorty was very pleasant on water, but especial protection, just for feet, he does not order.
Dark blue stains and contusions were in the agenda. But if I am fair, only if it is impossible to move in the evening before a loud muscular pain and weakness reasonably there was a super day on surfing more! For not surfer, perhaps, not well.
Waves became all above and the wind again added all corner. With mine 3.5 it I was frequent completely überpowert. The pleasure has it nevertheless still-made, first of all if has not caught one of Shorebreak once. Unfortunately, the mast should trust in it, however, in the rest all remains safe.
Last week on surfing then became again little bit more moderate. Waves any more were not as are high also a wind were more constant.
Balance in 4 weeks Vargas: every day the wind, in 2 days even is too much. Mostly it approached 3.5ому or 4.2ому, only in 2 days I should tighten ' big ' 4.7.
Even last day - shortly before a start - there was still a remarkable session on surfing. Vargas was in any relation again full success: In Spanish qualified, the country and people familiarly and new maneuvers the skilled. All at approximately 27 ° to 30 ° Celsius and the sun.
Next year I come back. It is necessary to hope, some more girls then are more on water.
Tarifa 2006

Tarifa
Almost 3 years pass now, since my old bus has resulted me first once after Tarifa and has shown to me, that there should be really higher waves and stronger winds than on lake of a dredge the house.
In the meantime I have transferred my residence in Germany little bit more close on the sea and my bus which could turn its last circles in the Berlin city centre, is, unfortunately, also history.
After the generous check of the most favorable sellers of flight our decision was established to start this time to temporary to less expensive trip to the most southern city of Europe by means of pilots. Last time this year temperatures Shorty needed to be found thus, of course, stimulus enough.
After arrival in Malaga ging’s with the small rent car and a chock-full roof in direction Costa del windy surfing. At first the wind kept waiting, unfortunately, still for itself, the casino and to devices of a bungalow which offered its compressed beauty on many kilometres lengthways Kyustenshtrasse was terrible, however, infinitely many made excavations in the earth to hotels.
Nevertheless, most later for Algeciras this picture changed and in 2 days of a wind was knocked also the Near East. Habitual 8 on Beaufort and weights in Valdevaqueros conducted us then then, nevertheless, at first after Canos de Meca which lays about 50 km to the West from Tarifa and is less strongly influenced by powerful winds in sea passage of Gibraltar.
After last streamer in a direction of the sea the moderate wind and small waves that could not keep, however, any from that he felt salty water under a board after the lapse of long time, at last, again as the autumn beginning was obvious not richly a wind in the homeland till now expected us, however, only.
Next days indulged us to constantly strong Near East so, at last, also small sails could come into effect. In 2 days in Canos we did in army territory the pier to which of us paid attention several Locals comes nearer to small town Tsaare. Kids, but from time to time abruptly breaking waves gave us the next successful day which was a little saddened only by the spoilt trapeze and my flying board (unfortunately, on stony sea a beach).
So restore on ambassador Tarifa, things cures it is made, to our camping visiting is made and is again free. Now our following purpose was having filled in Bolonia which is stretched behind a strong moving dune in Punta Paloma.
Here is available in coastal affinity at the Near East often best Freestyle conditions, as water to a moderate wave almost slippery. For this purpose it is possible to use to espresso or beer in an applied bar at the best point of view on succession of events.
In 5 days rich by a wind the prediction prophesied us some days of calm before, at last, Poniente it should be registered. The reason is enough for several walks after Algeciras and El Palmar, both that and another further away to the West from Canos is located and just at a northeast wind for its exacting waves .
They, the truth, did not remain to us it once kept anything to those contrary to it there was absolutely successful trip and who knows - possibly, we already soon come back. With by a boat sponsors Tabou, Gaastra, surfing were shop Berlin, Mogain Boardwear.

Windsurf trip in Maui

Windsurf trip in Maui
I have gone in Maui two weeks, from the end of July prior to the beginning of August . This period is recognised that the period is poor waves, you will see in the photos taken in Ho ' okipa, that their sizes were instead of were insignificant, there were good series in 2m. On the contrary force of a wind corresponded to statistics, 4.2 surtoilé the first week and 5.0 last week. Conditions of navigation, a wind and waveof the announcements described in these pages - that I have met during my stay, they can cause a stir during other moment.
It is not arrived in Maui directly, should pass through island Oahu where there arrive the international flights . The main airport appears in Kahului which is the biggest city Maui. In this city absolutely deprived of appeal it is found more all by trade, namely surfshops. The Most part surfshops suggests to hand over a equipment, usual package is made created) from a float, and from two sails, with all completing accessories which go with (a floor-mat, a floor-mat foot...) . You can change a equipment during your stay, it is so much times, how many you want. Even if the choice is important in shops, do not expect you that run business, considering the euro, equal to dollar (that was my case during my stay), floats, for example, 20 - 30 % are more expensive than in France. It is not necessary to forget, that France remained the country where we sell more all matos surfing. To notice, that surfshops are opened Sunday (all the day long) as the most part trade however. You Also remind, that the term the short surfboard has not been borrowed in English-Saxon, this word completely is not known out of the French six-coal borders, I count up, that this invention of any French marketing service. In English windsurf the term appoints simultaneously short surfboard and Olympic surfing. To come to an end on shops, contrary to the American means guys in surfshops owing to very international clientele are rather opened.
Hawaiian Island Surf and Sports about any it boards, fixed on a wall
Contrary to new, the case market is very accessible and very active, we can get out therefrom for full quiver, the included float, for 300$. For those who come for long term, can be interesting to buy a second-hand equipment more likely than to hand over to (praise). It it is found in shops, and also on announcements as in Spreckelsville (announcements on mobile chiotte or plancheux which unpack the matos occas which should be sold).
It is important to know about some rules before to go to float, it is forbidden to answer to 11 ч all announcements, has begun morning, it is kept for surfers even if is not available waves. lifeguards force to observe carefully a rule. Even on beaches which do not watch as Ho ' okipa, behind a rule quite follow, if you pass, you will be involved blows of premises and you endanger the penalty on watched announcements.
The epoch when I have left, corresponds to summer in the Hawaiian island, was warmly enough and water it was to be able so to float in bathing pants, a naked torso. Nevertheless much plancheux used lycra which could serve in addition as protection against sunstrokes. The most chilly used shorty. Personally I have found at morning and in little bit fresh evenings, but all concerning, I compare in relation to wash residence to Tahiti! Besides always during this period, alizé rose early around 9 ч 10, reached the maximum force between 12 ч and 14 ч and continued to breathe almost before falling of night, that to me allowed to go to answer in Ho ' okipa in any end aprés midday when was available much less people on the announcement.
For the information a proportion of girls on water impressing enough, it establish 30 % of a battalion, even in Ho ' okipa are good. Their level should not anything envy in the man's people. I ascertain, that the more water of heat and is transparent, the there are girls in water more.
For aspect a shelter, rent of the car and matos, I am not transferred style fun*fly or away sports (is not spent) by the tax bearer, I was untangled with local contact (the shelter and logistics see page). To be able to lodge my rich bourgeois family, I have handed over both bungalows which possesses Robert Teriiteho on the magnificent property in heights Ho ' okipa! For the car I have chosen a large van to be able to attach simultaneously seven and matos.
Under external shower Robert.
My van on parking Spreckelsville with matos wave which I have handed over
For other information about Maui on places which should be found out in a case pétole, life cost, meal, I invite you to see page which I have devoted it in my section tourism.
In this section, you are going to find following pages:
- Page a shelter and logistics where are presented bungalow Robert Teriitehou and also the car and a material (equipment), that I have handed over, just as a way which I undertook to keep all it on distance.
- Pages about the main announcements of northern coast (North Shore) Maui, namely, Ho ' okipa, Spreckelsville and Kanaha.
- Page with some addresses useful the Internet to prepare a trip.
- And at last magazine of my sessions in Maui.
Still last information, a place Jaws which "did not go" during my stay, it is not specified on what tourist booklet, no more than it is specified by road. At departure from Kahului, the point of supervision of a wave can appear on left Hana highway right after branchings to Haiku as there is no index, a place found out on number of cars which appear on the low party!
Hawaiian Watersports - Oahu
2:49 AM
Abele Manfrin
Kailua the Beach, to Oahu, is often considered in the house of surfing owing to one of the most well-known inhabitants, one Robby Naish, the surfing largest a name a bar anybody! As a goat, Robby left on bulky installations in day and pushed performing level where finally have involved tens others interest to speed and delight from it "new" kinds of sports. Naish all family began to plunge into surfing - to put in a board and sail first line, and then when any have started to be carried out, expand their knowledge and a cadastre for maintenance of growing fans responses too.
Probably, the calm in surfing probably, very good time to go in for sports the equipment expenses remained rather low because of reduction in demand and training in less densely populated area will always accept much more comfortable experience. The best rollers for surfing definitely on islands Maui and Oahu, mainly because of more convenient conditions of realisation on main rollers and, of course, for skilled seamen, a wave!
To Maui, in "hot points" are on North side island. Kanaha Bay the right near to airport La possesses big a steady wind which blow in parallel coast (ideal a format and an exit) and well-known beach Ho'okipa which gives the best wavesailing (surfing in waves) on Hawaii, and, probably, the world! In Maui, in the morning usually met light winds which increase almost always to strong + 25 miles at an o'clock per the beginning of day, except for a week a dawn, and I have flown by over sew Maui surfing holiday! Here you will find surfing / any shops as Maui Sailboards and Hi - Technology which were in avant-guard of the industry of surfing all together and to continue with occurrence responses.
Oahu though it is not enough than the actress of Maui, provides excellent surfing especially in Kailua on flat water (a flight slalom) and some waves of jumps. In Kailua, winds blow mainly coastal that does it a little more difficultly to float from coast, but it is much more safe, when it is time to come in! Kailua, possibly, the best the place to Oahu for beginners also offers two places from which it is possible to rent the equipment or to receive lessons - Naish Hawaii both Kailua Sailboards and Kayaks.
For all and in wavesailing to Oahu, it is to diamonds the Head a beach, where strong tradewinds blow sideshore (in parallel coast), and waves, perfectly approach for long and interesting excursions. When to pass on Diamond the head it is obligatory to observe, where seamen gather to avoid small areas and areas in which to a board surfing unite. I witnessed "- considers he's big" boards having jumped waves only on the earth in the middle as a heap clear anger to a board surfing in structure!

Brazil windsurf Trip
8:00 AM
Abele Manfrin
In the beginning of September, I have gone to Brazil on purpose to reconnoiter surf places and driving conditions.
From the Internet and magazines I knew, that the most suitable places were Fortaleza and Jericoacoara at the northwest coast of Brazil washed by Atlantic ocean.
Flight to Brazil was long and heavy and has occupied from me almost days. I flied from Peter to Frankfurt, further to Rio and from Rio back through all Brazil on the north in Fortaleza. Car to Jericoacoara from Fortaleza I planned on a jeep along coast.
Fortaleza it has appeared a huge city with the six-million population. Little bit dirty streets, set of the old cars, all it reminded Egypt, but the local population was absolute another.
In difference from Arabs, Brazilians seemed me even a little closed.
The central part of a city is located on the bank of a huge gulf with windward which parts the port is located. That the gulf is closed by port, a wind very gusty and rough.
In Fortaleza I have managed to find only two surfs-schools and those have been equipped by very ancient equipment basically calculated on training. Still there was a huge hangar in which local surfers stored the equipment.
Judging by models of sails and boards, the people basically drove a course-rejsing and freeride.
Having chatted with local distributors I have learnt that the best place for surfing, kiting and surfing are in the north of a city behind port on beaches Titanzinho and Praia do Futuro. The wind there is more equal, and sometimes comes quite good Swell from ocean, the problem only in that a wind blows almost under 90 degrees on coast, and for a surf everyone can leave far not.
In an hour I was in Titanzinho!
That I have seen in the north of Fortaleza to me personally much more was pleasant. In difference from city centre there were no many-storeyed hotels closely adjoining to a beach, and there were the low, cosy hotels surrounded with palm trees and an infinite beach.
One and most interesting hotels, with good conditions, is called Beach Park *****
In hotel territory there is everything, a place for equipment storage, a huge beach from snow-white sand, set of cosy bars, restaurants and pools. In general, an abrupt place where last year there passed a stage of a World Cup among the pro on kitesurfing!
To the left of hotel there is a surfing school (without a sail). The wave of one and a half-two metre allows to be engaged in surfing and bodyboard.
But, unfortunately, for those who never had experience of driving in a surf, chances to leave in the sea come practically to naught!
For morning of next day in me has been ordered Lendrover defender with the guide, and in six mornings I have gone in Jericoacoara (Jericoacoara).
Jericoacoara is in 350 km on the north from Fortaleza, and the first 250 km to us should be passed directly on ocean coast.
The trip on coast already costs that to go in Brazil. More than two tens absolutely different beaches, two falls, lakes with settlements of Indians, the exotic nature!
Almost each beach with the unique conditions for driving.
But what to drive in each interesting place at least to steam of hours it would be necessary to spend on a trip a minimum week!
Before arriving in Jericoacoara, we have called in on well-known Paradise Lagune and Blue Lagune in ten kilometres on the east.
Water in lagoons fresh, but nevertheless, blue colour with beaches from the small it is dazzling white sand.
The warm, strong wind does not allow to freeze, but at the same time, brings a fresh cool from ocean. An ideal place for beginners windsurfers.
Magazine National Geographic named beaches and lagoons Jericoacoara a place entering into ten the most beautiful places on the earth.
From the moment of my arrival in Fortaleza the wind blew practically always, but in Jericoacoara it almost was twice stronger. In itself Jericoacoara is small village half consisting of small hotels and a bungalow. From tens small bars and restaurants with pleasure will prepare for you any local exotic or will make a cold cocktail. In Jericoacoara there are no large hotels with any gadgets and if they were that have strongly spoilt style of this place.
Basically in a bay or the people go for a drive on cape which separates windward a part of a bay from ocean. From ocean on cape comes small 1-1,5 metres but very correct sideshore-swell. Having dispersed on smooth water in a bay it is possible to jump out highly from a counter wave, and on road back in a bay it is possible to be engaged mini waveriding not risking to get in Wipeout or to be buried under the big wave.
I would recommend this place both beginning, and very advanced surfers. A place where without risk it is possible to receive weight of pleasure.
In Jericoacoara I have found quite good surf station with fresh boards Jo and sails Neil Pryde. The station is at hotel Casa do Tourismo, is called CLUBE dos VENTOS
Having talked with local surfers, I have learnt that the wind begins in May and blows till February. The most windy month - October. Usually since morning the wind is weaker, amplifies by a dinner and blows till five evenings, then starts to weaken.
Sometimes from ocean comes big Swell, but unfortunately it occurs usually in a month when the wind does not blow.
The most widespread transport in Jericoacoara is the bugs, two local machines with additional seats behind which with ease go on sand and dunes and as are suitable for driving on a city.
Two days in Fortaleza and Jericoacoara have flown by instantly and on a return way I have spent night and half-day in capital of Brazil Rio de Janeiro. As Brazil is in southern hemisphere, I have got there in the end of winter, therefore weather in Rio was cloudy and rainy. But from ocean went good Swell and on beach Copacabana where I have stopped, it was full surfres and bodyriders. I had possibility to look as local natives go for a drive, and they go for a drive very much not sweet!!!
Trip to Brazil, pleasure not from the cheap. Only the ticket costs 1500 dollars, but all the rest basically is inexpensive, the meal and hotels stand more . So at desire it is possible to keep within in two, two and a half thousand.
For that you there will see it anything! And if at me all to develop that I necessarily I will go to Brazil for the winter with friends!
