Kitesurfing in Camocim

Camocim is a working fishing town at the mouth of the Coreaú river, the largest town on this stretch of coast. Across the river, Ilha do Amor is a long sandbank of dunes with flat water on the river side.

Our multi-day downwinders pass here on the Tatajuba to Maceió leg: 35 km of wild coastline mixing slightly choppy flats with wave sections, before the night in the fishing village of Maceió.
