Beaches such as “do Preá” and “de Jericoacoara” offer clear waters that are perfect for practicing water sports such as kitesurfing.

But when choosing the three best experiences for a first visit to Jericoacoara, Matías Mute recommends the following:

2. Paradise Lagoona lagoon with crystal-clear waters and white sands ideal for relaxing and enjoying the landscape. You can spend the day swimming or relaxing in a hammock on the water’s edge, and there are bars and restaurants where to enjoy local food.

3. Holed Stonea rock formation with a hole in its center, a perfect place to take photos and enjoy nature. The walk to the stone is quite accessible and you can enjoy a beautiful view of the ocean.

The closest international airport is Fortalezafrom where there are two ways to continue the trip to Jericoacoara. One is a direct flight from Fortalezawhich lasts just over an hour. The second is to go by land, by bus or private vehiclea trip of about 4 or 5 hours. The bus can be taken at the Fortaleza terminal, and private or shared transfers can be hired.
