As well as being the homespot of 3-time World Wavesailing Champion Kauli Seadi, Ibiraquera is simply a super place. Windy and wavy. Surrounded by a beautiful natural coastal landscape with a lagoon, palm trees and massive sand dunes - it's somewhere you have to discover for yourself one day...

For the past 4 years my Argentinian girlfriend Leysa Perotti and I were lucky to live the 'Endless Summer' - spending 6 months working hard in France, and escaping the European winter to go windsurfing in Brazil.
