More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The road from Fortaleza unwinds into big sky and low dunes until the village of Jericoacoara appears like a gathering of palms and colorful pousadas on the edge of a national park. Passengers trade urban noise for the hiss of sand and the occasional staccato of windsurfers rigging on the bay; the landscape opens in stages — coastal scrub, salt flats, and the broad white shoulders of dunes that lead to the sea.
