Re: ilha do gujiru what do you ting it is a cool place???

Fact; 1. They advertise on your website so you get paid as part of their marketing. 2. You have visited Praia da Barra at Beachlifes expense. 3. Almost everyone I have spoken too that has visited their was either disappointed, did not like the place or both. 4. Just because I know you to be a diseng...

Oh! and another oh; be sceptical of Toby´s review, he makes money from their marketing and isn´t adverse to accepting free trips up there from the developer. It isn´t in his interests to really highlight any negative aspects of the place.

Re: ilha do gujiru what do you ting it is a cool place???

I´ve spoken too many, many people this year on their return to Cumbuco from Praia da Barra and the reviews are, almost with out exception, all the same. It´s gusty It´s not ´that´ flat The tidal thing is a problem The lack of facilities is a problem I cut my fuxing feet open etc. etc. etc. Basi...

Re: How does this happen.....Bow kites

Perhaps, and this is just a shot in the dark, but just perhaps, young Mr, Richman won the KPWT and he just happened to ride for Cabrinha. For the really dense amongst you, what I´m eluding too is that riders win comps, not kites. ....It might also be worth pointing out that many on the KPWT tour us...

Re: Cumbuco cash machine...dont touch with a barge pole..

Bit of a longer drive, but at least they have money machines IN banks there... Don´t be lulled into a false sense of security, just because the machine is IN the bank...

Re: Traveling from Recife to Fortaleza experiences anyone?

A cab will cost you a lot, Reciefe isn´t just around the corner it´s over 800km, it´d be cheaper to fly. Check Gol, TAM, WebJet for tickets. Alternatively hire a car and drive, it´ll take the same time as a taxi (I´m guessing around 10 - 12 hours) and will cost you a lot less. Me, I´d fly! :bye:

Re: Heli Service Ilha do Guajiru, Brazil

Oh look, one of my posts has been deleted. I wonder why and who would have done that???

And it's not official news, it's a marketing statement and an inaccurate one at that.

It's not 90 mins, it's not a new kite spot etc etc etc... :nono:

Re: The perfect kitespot has a name...Ilha do Guajirú, Brazil

1. I knew you´d take this tack. 2. I notice you didn´t actually answer the question. I call it Paracuru because it´s in Paracuru, and so calling it Paracuru doesn´t constitute deliberatly attempting to mislead people. If you look at my posting history you will notice that I mostly give people fr...

Re: The perfect kitespot has a name...Ilha do Guajirú, Brazil

the island is called Ilha do Guajiru. The spot itself is Praia do Barra. The island (don't you have to be surrounded by water isolated from the main land to be an island? Which this isn't), being the chunk of land owned by Robert that he is developing himself as a resort, homes for sale and small p...

Re: The perfect kitespot has a name...Ilha do Guajirú, Brazil

Not to get technical about this, but the word "barra" in Portuguese (for sand bar) is actually feminine and really is "Praia da Barra", mostly known by the locals as Praia de Itarema . Here are some pictures of this new spot taken on a kite-safari, 5 years ago. Haha Fred, very true AND very anal. :...
