Word from Those Who Know

" We didn't create a kite school. We created a place to live what we love — and share that with you. "

Nathan, master instructor at Cabana do Kite

Nathan

Master Instructor, Cabana do Kite

Cabana do Kite was born from a passion for the wind and sea of Icaraizinho de Amontada. We're the most experienced kitesurf school in the region, with IKO and ABK certified instructors who teach in Portuguese, English, French, Spanish and more.

But Cabana is much more than a school. It's a beach bar and restaurant with fresh seafood, daily specials that change with the tide, and cold drinks to celebrate every session. It's the place where kitesurfers from all over the world meet, share stories and come back every year.

Here the wind blows from July to January with consistency and strength. The waters are shallow and safe for learning. And when the sun sets, Cabana becomes the best bar on the coast of Ceará.

Come for the kite. Stay for the experience.

Why Cabana do Kite?

Kite in the morning, lunch with fresh seafood, live music at sunset, and a team that knows every corner of Icaraizinho. Cabana do Kite is the heart of the spot — with secure beach storage, quality equipment, and that vibe only the best places in the world have. Pousada País Tropical, our partner, is just steps away when you want to rest in comfort.

Minha experiência foi ótima! Os instrutores são atenciosos e a estrutura do club é perfeita. Sinto que evolui muito em poucas aulas! Ahh e tem opção vegana!

Nous avons passé plusieurs jours dans cette école de kite, et tout a été parfait du début à la fin. L’équipe est ultra pro, chaleureuse et passionnée. Les spots sont vraiment top et les cours ont été super bien encadrés et toujours dans la bonne humeur. Mention spéciale à Sarah, personne et prof géniale : patiente, pédagogue, motivante… elle a clairement fait la différence dans notre progression !

Le bar/resto est aussi un vrai coup de cœur : plats délicieux, cocktails au top, et une ambiance super détendue. Le tout dans un cadre de rêve et face à la mer.

Bref, que ce soit pour apprendre le kite, se détendre autour d’un bon repas ou juste profiter de l’atmosphère, c’est l’endroit parfait. Un grand merci à toute l’équipe – on reviendra, c’est sûr !

Le patron Alan est au petit soin pour ses clients. Il fait en sorte que l’on soit satisfait. Propose de la wing cours ou loc un peu plus loin dans la baie. J’ai eu un super prof en wing, Nathan, hyper dispo pour donner plein de conseils.

Sinon le club propose aussi de la restauration, on y déjeune bien et même des crêpes au goûter. Très bonne ambiance dans ce club.
