KITE + AMAZON EXPERIENCES
In partnership with the Rosa do Ventos school, we will hold a unique meeting between Kite and Amazônia.
Imagine sailing on a river that is 33km from one bank to the other, has clear, warm and yellowish waters, a place little visited by kite surfers, in the middle of the Amazon Caribbean! Our arrival and departure point is the famous village of Alter do Chão. From there, we will travel by DOWNWIND along the most beautiful river in the Amazon, the Arapiuns.
We will stop at deserted white sand beaches and stop at riverside communities to learn about the culture of Pará. As we sail, we'll get to know cuisine, trails in primary forest, canoe rides, regional music and dance (carimbó), piracaia (grilled fish). at the beach ) and bonfire, local crafts, community forest saving projects on foot and we will meet many local people who will be friends for life.
Our accommodation will be in the most beautiful spaces and in the middle of nature,
the inn Villa Arapiuns and in the community inn of Anã.
Welcome!!
