Flat-water spot in the southern basin of Lagamar do Cauípe, the large lagoon of the Cauípe river, about 6 km from the sea. You launch from the shore of Pitombeira, in the open field at the end of the street that goes down from the village to the water, and you ride in front of that shore. It is not the Lagoa do Cauípe used by kiters, which is at the mouth, next to the beach. It works with the trade wind, almost daily from July to January and stronger in the afternoon. From the east it comes directly onshore towards the bank, so if you fall you drift back to Pitombeira; from May to July it turns southeast and comes in side-on. With strong wind some chop forms. The shore has a strip of reeds: enter and exit at the end of the street. There are no services, schools or lifeguards: do not go out alone. The Lagamar is an Environmental Protection Area: respect the vegetation and wildlife. In case of emergency call 193 (fire brigade) or 192 (SAMU). The best time is from August to December.
