Prea

Prea is a shallow lagoon spot located on Brazil's northeastern coast, facing north into protected waters. The lagoon is characterized by fine sand bottom, shallow depths averaging 1-2 meters, and extensive mangrove vegetation along the shoreline. This is a sheltered water body with minimal wave exposure, making it suitable primarily for flat-water kitesurfing and beginners learning board control. The spot experiences very low wind reliability at 12.1%, with average winds of only 8.3 knots, requiring consistent wind days for viable sessions. Best conditions occur with easterly or westerly winds that run parallel to the coast. The shallow, calm water reduces safety concerns from deep-water hazards but requires awareness of sandbars and submerged vegetation. Water temperatures averaging 28.3°C are comfortable year-round. This spot suits beginners and intermediate kiters seeking flat-water practice in a protected environment, though consistent wind is the primary limiting factor for session frequency.
