SURE... THE GRAPHS ARE FUN, AND TELL YOU A GREAT STORY. BUT DON'T TAKE OUR WORDS FOR IT... CHECK OUT THIS "RIDE OF THE DAY" VIDEO, SUPPLIED AND REFRESHED DAILY WITH THE REAL ACTION ON THE WATER RIGHT NOW (WELL, YESTERDAY)
So, Jericoacoara, what to say? Ofcourse it is windy with anything bigger than 5.0 gathering dust in the sail rack! Due to the full moon and the tidal activity it brings, the swell has been perfect in the early afternoon for jumps and beginners wave riding, then as the tide has been filling into the bay, the surfers and wave riders take to the water to revel in the conditions on offer. The kiters are also kept happy in the mornings with the calmer winds; although too many caiprinhas at night can affect how many kiters we see out before 11am!
Lots to do if your worn out through too much time on the water, what with Aftersun parties, movie nights, free windsurf clinics, video review sessions; its all on offer here at Vela Jericoacoara!
