" To open a centre on the most windy coast of the world "
Let me tell you the little story:
"We arrived on the coast of Ceara in July 2005 with a team of experts in tourism to find the best spot of Windsurfing, still virgin of the "Costa do Sol". Icaraizinho seduced us at once, first of all for its situation between Fortaleza (the capital of the state) and Jericoacoara (the most renowned spot of the coast). The spot turned out to be the most complete that we met. It offers a big variety of spot of waves, flatwater and fresh water in lagoons, what allows making regularly different Wind Trip throughout your stay. In October 2005, we rented a place, to validate the best place and to open the gear storage center the best positioned on a spot of windsurfing".
Situation
Brazilian Crew is now situated on the East point and is ideally placed to receive the best conditions of wind of the bay (side, side-off starboard). The stretch of water is technical, flat on 150m and a wave of reef of 1-1.50 m which unwinds on a flat and rocky paving stone. You go to be able to burst in a water in 28 °, without sea urchin, without shark and without mussel in a perfect and regular wind, all the day, where the navigations 4.7m2 and less are almost daily from August till December!!!
