Beyond the gate,
Jericoacoara.
Where the trade winds find the water.
Jericoacoara was built on the wind: from July through January the northeast trades hold steady for most of the afternoon, eight months a year. Outside the kite season the water warms, the afternoons soften, and the lagoons reach their fullest.
Kitesurf.
Steady NE trades July through January. A local school handles rentals, lessons, and the launch on the kite beach a short walk from the villa.
Lagoa do Paraíso.
Freshwater lagoon outside the village. Hammocks slung over the water, a buggy ride out, an afternoon away from the wind.
Sailing & jangada.
Wooden sailing rafts off the village beach. A half day on the water, the coast read from a different angle.
Across the sand, into the parks.
Behind the village the dunes begin, and they barely stop: Jericoacoara, Lençóis and Tatajuba hold some of Brazil's biggest dune systems on this one stretch of coast. Most of what you do here happens with sand under the tires or under the board.
Buggy.
Half-day or full-day buggy across the dunes and lagoons. The classic Jeri loop. Driver, fuel, and a stop at Lagoa do Paraíso included.
Sandboarding.
The sunset dune at the village edge. Boards rented locally. Most of the village climbs it once a day.
Horseback.
Through the dunes or along the beach at low tide. A different pace, a longer view of the coast.
Then there is everything you don't have to plan.
Concierge.
The on-site team holds the keys to Jeri. Tell us how the day should feel, and the rest is arranged.
How we work
We don't offer packages.We craft your stay.
The on-site team knows Jeri by heart: its light, its winds, the hours when the place is at its best. Tell us how the days should feel and we shape them around you. Timing, rhythm, and the quiet arrangements are ours to hold.
Your company
Two of you, or the whole house. The villa makes room for whoever you arrive with.
Your hours
Jeri keeps its own clock. The wind for the water gathers in the afternoon, the best of the sky comes at the end of the day.
Your pace
No fixed schedule. Wake with the village or sleep through the morning. The day moves at your speed.
Not to be missed
The best of Jeri begins just beyond the village. Two journeys are worth crossing the sand for, and the team makes sure you don't leave without them.
The lagoons
Lençóis Maranhenses.
A field of white dunes that fills, after the rains, with lagoons clear and warm enough to swim in. The team sets the crossing and the timing, and shapes the day around the light.
The delta
Parnaíba Delta.
A maze of mangrove channels and sandbanks reached by boat, with birds at first light and caimans after dark. The team arranges it end to end: the route, the boat, the table on the way back.
QUESTIONS
Plainly asked, plainly answered.
The things most guests want to know before they write. Anything else, send it our way.
What is there to do in Jericoacoara?
Kitesurfing and wing foiling in the windy season, surfing off the village beach, and Lagoa do Paraíso a buggy ride away. On land: the dunes, Pedra Furada to the east, the Sunset Dune at the edge of the village, horseback at low tide. Further out, the Lençóis Maranhenses and the Parnaíba Delta. The team arranges any of it.
When is kitesurf season in Jericoacoara?
July to January, eight months a year. The north-east trade winds come up late morning and hold until sunset — that wind is what built the village's kite culture. The kite beach is a short walk from the villa, and a local school handles rental, lessons and getting on the water. The day's conditions are on our weather page.
When is the best time to visit Jericoacoara?
It depends what you want. July to January the trade winds hold steady: that is kite season, dry days and a busy village. February to June the wind softens, the sea warms, the lagoons are at their fullest and the crowds thin out — rain falls mostly in March and April. The temperature barely changes between the two.
How do you get to Jericoacoara, and to the villa?
Fly to Fortaleza or to Jericoacoara airport. From either one, the last stretch crosses the sand of the parks around the village: Jericoacoara has no paved roads, and the final leg is done in an adapted vehicle. The villa arranges it on request. The house is on Rua São Francisco, in the middle of the village.
How far is the villa from the beach and the centre?
It is not. It sits in the middle of Jericoacoara, on Rua São Francisco, with shops and restaurants on the same street and the beach a short walk away. The whole village is sand and has no cars, so everything is done on foot, including the walk up the dune at sunset. The Miragem restaurant is right across the street.
