Default NEW CUSTOM BUILT KITEBOARD RESORT!


http://kiteflatwater.com/

Northern Brazil has been discovered as the kiting paradise. Flat water lagoons, perfect waves and the most predictable wind in the world: 20+ knots everyday!

The Lagoons

The Lagoons at Dunmore do Sol are unique in many ways. The three spring-fed, fresh water lagoons are only accessable to our guests insuring an uncrowded, amazing kiteboarding experience. The lagoons were crafted specifically with kiteboarding in mind. Each is one meter deep - deep enough to try the most insane tricks, but shallow enough to stand anywhere. Beginners to experts love the control of being able to stand up at any time.

The windward side of each lagoon has a gradual sloping berm 2 meters in height which allows for a huge expanse of butter flat water, the kind of water you dream about wakeboarding on, plus the gradual slope/berm creates a mild up-draft enabling the biggest airs!




The Wind

Northern Brazil has the most consistant wind in the world! The windy season runs from April through January and it is windy everyday. In fact, the wind is so predictable that if it's not windy enough to kite on any given day, your room is free for that day!

April through June brings fairly gentle wind (gentle for Brazil standards) of 15 to 20 knots every day. Then, from July through January the wind honks! Expect 20 to 25 knots or higher everyday!



Night Kiteboarding

As if private, flat, fresh water lagoons and perfect waves weren't enough, Dunmore features stadium lighting for night kiting!

Unlike other kiteboarding destinations, the wind never stops in Northern Brazil, so why should you stop kiteboarding? Lagoons are lit until midnight every night!
