Salvador

To the north of Salvador de Bahia, between the Itapuã neighborhood and the long Stella Maris beach, lies one of the best urban spots in northeastern Brazil. Here, you navigate in the heart of a contrasting setting: buildings in the background, beach lined with palm trees, exposed reefs at low tide, and turquoise waters under the tropical sun. It is a spot that is both lively, technical, and accessible, where local riders, surfers, joggers, and families come together to enjoy the wind. Stella Maris is the most popular beach for kiting: vast, open, ideally oriented for the east wind. Itapuã, further south, offers a more local and roots atmosphere, with calmer sections between the reefs.

These are two complementary spots: Stella Maris for powerful freeride sessions and small jumps. Itapuã for light surfkiting and relaxed navigation between natural pools. It’s the perfect spot for those who want to kite without leaving the city, while enjoying an exotic and colorful setting.
