About Macapá
Perfect flat water for freestyle kite. Athletic vibe.
Macapá is the corridor's purest flat-water kite spot — the Rio Camurupim estuary lagoon creates extremely shallow mirror flats where the 2.4-meter tidal range sculpts unique conditions with every cycle. The triple wave of German investment (BeeKite, Windloop, 35knots with 300 Mbps fiber) has transformed this small fishing village into Piauí's most specialized kite hub.
