Hazards

Long exposed coast, solo-run risk, shuttle/recovery dependence and incomplete public endpoint detail.

“Coastal town around 35–40 km northwest of Fortaleza in the state of Ceará – one of the most-booked kite travel spots in the world. In the dry season the easterly trade wind (the Alisios) blows almost daily and all day at a steady 15–25 knots, often on 80% of days; the warm dunes reinforce the wind thermally. Out front is wind-chopped sea, and downwinders run for kilometres over the dunes north to the Cauípe Lagoon, a flat freestyle and beginner dream. When is the best time to visit Cumbuco? July Progression Project forum first-hand regional report adds that the Fortaleza–Cumbuco coast supports 30+ km warm-water solo downwind runs in season.”
