Jericoacoara is one of the best places for wind in all of Brazil, if not the world. This is due to the strong trade winds that come all the way from the Africa. While most of Ceará's coastline runs SE to NW, Jeri's coast runs E W, parallel to the equator and in exact line with the trade winds which have no natural obstacles so arrive at full force.
WIND DIRECTION + SPOT CONDITIONS
Wind direction - constant side off shore.
Waves differ in size depending on tide, swell and time of year. During high tide is when you have the biggest waves ranging in size from waist to shoulder to head high. With a soft sandy bottom, these are friendly, gentle waves that are perfect for learning to ride, to practice your jumps, tabletops, forwards, back loops or whatever move you feel like going for.
