Jericoacoara / Preá
Jericoacoara and Preá are linked trip bases with different roles. Visit Brasil places Preá 11 kilometres from Jeri and identifies July through December as the wind-sports period; current operators provide a beachfront Preá base, shuttle logistics, wingfoil rental, and separate lagoon teaching.

How map references work
A point can mark a useful access, business, or approximate area reference. It does not establish a legal riding-zone boundary, guaranteed launch, safe depth, or current access permission.
Jericoacoara · Praia Principal
The village-front beach is the social and windsurf reference in the official destination guide.
Preá Beach · beachfront service sector
A rounded Preá beach-sector reference, not Mandala’s surveyed entrance at Av.
Access & safety
- Open beach and teaching lagoon are different products
- Mandala schedules sessions around wind and tide and uses boat support for lagoon lessons. Do not infer that the lesson lagoon is a mapped independent launch or that the open Preá water has the same learning conditions. Sources: Mandala Kite School · Preá wingfoil services.
- Use accredited local instruction for a first session
- Visit Brasil recommends accredited companies and instructors and treats Preá as a strong-wind venue. Obtain a current level, tide, and launch briefing before riding independently. Sources: Visit Brasil · Jericoacoara water-sports guide.
Not a live safety service. Recheck local notices, closures, access, weather, and water conditions before every session.

Plan the trip
- Choose Jeri or Preá before booking daily transport
- Visit Brasil separates the settlements, while Mandala publishes its own shuttle between Jericoacoara, Preá, and lesson locations. Staying in Jeri can work, but it creates a daily transfer to the reviewed Preá service base. Sources: Visit Brasil · Jericoacoara destination and access, Mandala Kite School · Preá wingfoil services.
- Airport and bus access do not finish the equipment journey
- The official destination page lists Jericoacoara Regional Airport and the Jijoca bus terminal. Riders still need a confirmed transfer for the final sandy-road and equipment leg; an ordinary rental car is not treated here as guaranteed access.
