Lagoon
Brazil · Ceará
Located on the sunny coast of Ceará, in northeast Brazil, Pontal de Maceió is a small, unspoiled fishing village bordered by an endless stretch of golden sand. Far from the hustle and bustle of the larger seaside resorts, it's a peaceful and authentic spot where the wind blows almost every day, creating a typically Brazilian atmosphere. The beach offers a superb natural setting, with its dunes, palm trees, and the mouth of the Maceió River, creating a contrast between the sea and the lagoon. The conditions are consistent, the water warm year-round, and the sailing area is immense, with no major obstacles. It's a perfect spot for riders seeking both performance and tranquility. Thanks to its constant east to southeast wind, Pontal attracts both Ceará locals and travelers looking for a quieter spot than Cumbuco or Icaraizinho. Here, time seems to slow down: we sail to the rhythm of the wind, we share caipirinhas at sunset, and we enjoy a Brazil that is still authentic.

The Praia de Pontal is a typical ocean spot of the Nordeste, wide, clean, and predictable. The side-onshore wind, from east to southeast, blows between 18 and 26 knots every day during the season. The water surface is regularly choppy, with small spaced waves at high tide and a flatter surface at low tide. The sandy bottom, the infinite beach, and the controlled power of the wind make this spot a perfect playground for freeride. The more experienced love to set off from here for long downwinds to Fortim or Canoa Quebrada, along a wild coast dotted with red cliffs and deserted beaches. Beginners, on the other hand, can sail without stress: the beach is huge, and the side-on wind always brings you back to shore.
