The wind picks up off the Atlantic as a convoy of buggies and 4x4s threads a narrow spit of sand; salt spray and dune dust paint the horizon while mangrove roots clutch at tidal mud below. You start along a rutted coastal road, ferry across a tidal channel, and slide into a landscape that alternates between glassy lagoons and towering sand waves that dare you to climb them.

The wind picks up off the Atlantic as a convoy of buggies and 4x4s threads a narrow spit of sand; salt spray and dune dust paint the horizon while mangrove roots clutch at tidal mud below. You start along a rutted coastal road, ferry across a tidal channel, and slide into a landscape that alternates between glassy lagoons and towering sand waves that dare you to climb them.
This corridor of Ceará was long a string of fishing settlements—Jericoacoara grew from a remote village into a surf and dune destination without losing its slow rhythm. Geologically the coast is recent: wind-driven dunes shift across Pleistocene beaches, while mangroves colonize sheltered estuaries, their aerial roots breathing in tides. Local culture mixes fishing traditions with artisan craft and a growing adventure-tourism scene; many stops highlight both natural features and small community life.
On the West Coast Tour you’ll see dry mangrove “seahorses,” a ferry crossing, the Guriú mangrove trail, off-road dune runs, sandboard (skibunda), a natural water slide, zipline, Tatajuba lagoon, and a beach return with a photo stop at Guriú’s exposed roots.
Practically: expect 5–6 hours, sun and sand, and a mix of short walks and vehicle time. Choose the vehicle that suits your group—buggy, ATV, or Toyota Hilux—and pack sun protection, a refillable water bottle, sturdy sandals or closed-toe shoes for dunes, and a dry bag for electronics. Maintain a slow pace on dunes, respect mangrove zones, and time the route for daylight and tides to make the most of the lagoon and beach stretches.
The tour runs about 5–6 hours, including multiple stops for photos and activities like sandboarding and the zipline.
Yes—the operator offers buggies (up to 4), ATVs (up to 2), or a Toyota Hilux 4x4 (up to 4); choose when booking based on group size and comfort.
The trip is rated physically easy overall, but dune climbs and boarding activities may be challenging; check with the operator about infant seats and vehicle accessibility.
Bring swimwear, a towel, sun protection, a water bottle, and a camera; consider water shoes for lagoon edges and protection from shells and rocks.
