Wind in São Miguel do Gostoso

How to read the São Miguel do Gostoso forecast

The curve here is gentler than on the western Ceará coast, and the season runs later into summer. In January and February, once Ceará has faded, this page usually shows better numbers than Cumbuco’s — which is the main reason to check it.

Before choosing a kite, choose a beach. Gostoso has stretches with very different profiles within a few kilometres, and this page forecasts a single point. A beach sheltered by a sandbar gives flat water on the same wind that leaves the open beach with formed waves.

What the model cannot see

The forecast point is the village. At the spots further east the direction arrives slightly differently because of how the coast is oriented — which changes the kind of riding more than the strength.
