bom dia!
Brasilien – Brazil. It’s an alluring place that almost everyone has dreamed of visiting at some point. Caipirinha, Samba and endless beaches… That’s what it’s all about, right? That is what it WAS all about. For years kitesurfers have searched for destinations that combine the mythical characteristics – strong reliable wind, untouched fine sandy beaches with rolling waves and plenty of space on the water. Have you ever dreamt about such a place? Then you may just have discovered the best one on the planet. When you join us on our Kite Surf Safari in Brazil, you can say goodbye to the crowded beaches and mass tourism. You will say hello to expansive flatwater lagoons and pristine northeast beaches, scouted for you by our pros. With no more than 8 guests on tour, you will have plenty of space to fly over the water. And since life is a journey, why not ride it with style? What better way of travelling can you think of, then with your kite? That’s right, we will travel per kite along the beaches of Northeast Brazil, while the 4X4 truck follows us close by, while we are kiting on the ocean until the next flat water lagoon! For more information... ...visit www.kiteworldwide.com ...visit www.facebook.com/kiteworldwide ...send an email to: info@kiteworldwide.com ...or simply call us +49 (0)40-2093 4509 0 or +41 (0)43 50-81 50 4 or +44(0)2036085777 ...or come to our brand new office in the Portuguese quarter of Hamburg at 6 Neustädter Neuer Weg, just a few minutes away from the piers. We are available for you Mon.-Fri 10-19:00 and Saturday 11-16:00.

Tested quality
In order to guarantee the highest possible quality and service, we only offer exclusive selected kite travels, in a way you hardly ever will find anywhere else. One of us or one of our long-standing experienced partners will accompany you on your travel.
Exclusiveness!
You can be sure that you will not get any of the Kitesurf holidays we offer anywhere else. Some of our packages are offered exclusively (like the KiteWorldWide Lodge Kenya or Seahorse Bay in Egypt) or as specials (like the Wave Kite Camps with Mitu Monteiro at Cape Verde), and can only be purchased from us.
KiTeworldwide cenTer
In four of our destinations (Brazil, Kenya, Zanzibar, South Africa) we run our own kite centers. Of course, all of them are VDWS licensed. We not only take part in the VDWS seminars, but we contribute referees to school new teachers. Certainly, we always offer a great selection of the newest material and certified kitesurf instructors. That we will stay up to date, when it comes to the development of kitesurfing schools.

Why KiTesafari?
Endless beaches, waves, wind – every day! A maximum of eight riders, one driver, one local guide who knows all the secret spots. Sounds like a dream. Once you feel the salt water on your skin and the wind is blowing and you hear the first rider cries of joy, because he or she just did the first high jump, then you will realize: THIS is kitesurfing in Brazil. Not one of these mass events, but pure kitesurfing – like it should be! During this safari we will bring you to the wild north-east of Brazil, where the best spots are, and where there are not 50 kites in the sky but only yours. And the best thing is yet to come, because the journey is the reward! You will ride on the water with the wind and we will escort you with our 4x4 pickups along the beach. You will be on the water for 12 days in a row and ride new spots on a daily basis. Be aware: This is not a tour for beginners. During this tour you will ride in strong winds and in high waves. It is absolutely necessary that you are an experienced rider.
Tour 1 + Tour 2: 03.11. bis 21.11. (Lagoinha – Parnaiba) Tour 3 + Tour 4: 29.11. bis 17.12. (Lagoinha – Parnaiba) TOUR GUARANTEE: All date s will take place for sure and not be canceled, becaus e there is no minimum number of participants.
DOWNWINDER
We will start at one point of the coast, after carefully checking wind-, wave- and tide conditions. Then we will cruise for about 20 miles at high speeds down the coast, without the annoying upwind tacking.
True KITESAFARI
Here are a few facts, why our trips are different from those other providers offer. We exclusively use 4 wheel drive pick up trucks (e.g. Toyota Hilux) and NOT beach buggys or Jeeps. Buggys tend to break down regularly and with time they also become extremely uncomfortable. It also takes forever to load up the Jeeps with all the kite luggage. We stay in stylish, cool Brazilian Pousadas, which in most of the cases were built up by other kiters, NOT in some impersonal hotel chain. Our kite safaris are organized for a maximum of 8 people, in two cars. The KiteWorldWide safari is not a mass event, because what advantage would you have from being at a solitary spot, but bringing a group of 30 people with you.
+ Perfect mix of wave downwinders and flat water + Absolute wind guarantee + NEW – German speaking, VDWS licensed instructor and tour guide + Tour is Guaranteed : There is no minimum number of participants
