About Mundaú
Toboggan dunes, sunset dunes, and Mundaú River mouth. Access via Flecheiras or Fortaleza.
The mouth of the Rio Mundaú is the most dramatic river-meets-sea encounter on the Ceará coast: the river emerges between 10–15 m barchan dunes and creates a freshwater mirror that contrasts with the salty Atlantic blue, all within a federal APA reserve. The catamaran travels upriver through mangroves, dunes, and spinning wind turbine towers — a 1h30 tour that distills the best of Ceará nature.
