Praia da Tabuba is the open sea beach to the east of Cumbuco, upwind: quieter than Cumbuco, with more chop and waves, good for wave kite and as a starting point for a downwind to Cumbuco beach. You launch on the sand to the northwest of Barraca Tabúzios, a beach club with pools on a breakwater. It works with the trade wind, which blows almost daily from July to January, strongest in September and in the afternoon. From the east it comes in side-onshore; from May to July it turns southeast, blows almost parallel to the shore and is more gusty. If it turns further south it becomes offshore: then go to another spot. From February to April is the rainy season and the wind is less consistent. It is best at low tide, when the beach is wider. Watch out for the rock breakwater in front of the barraca, which is upwind of the launch, the shorebreak and swimmers near the barraca. To the northwest the beach narrows in front of houses with walls. 2.5 km to the southeast is Lagoa da Tabuba, with flat water. In case of emergency call 193 (fire brigade) or 192 (SAMU). The best time is from August to December. Photos: "Fortaleza, Ceará, Brasil. Montando kitesurf. Icaray. - panoramio" by Boris Karpuk (CC BY-SA 3.0), via Wikimedia Commons.
