Traveller notes on Jericoacoara in April
Other months in Jericoacoara
Jericoacoara forum threads describe January as decent, if not the destination's signature season - the town's famous consistent trade winds that draw kitesurfers peak roughly August through December, so January visitors shouldn't expect the strongest wind window even though some breeze is still typical. Rain chances were described as moderate rather than severe this early in the wet season, generally arriving as short bursts rather than settling in for the day, with posters noting conditions get progressively wetter heading into February and March. January is also high season here regardless of the wind trade-off, so bigger crowds were the other factor mentioned alongside the weather.
Forum posters describe August as sitting inside the region's windy season (roughly August-December), with wind reported blowing essentially every single day - stronger and more consistent than other months, making it prime kitesurfing and windsurfing territory. Posters note the wind in Jericoacoara town itself can actually be too strong or awkwardly angled for kitesurfing specifically, so many kiters take a short buggy ride over to nearby Preá in the afternoon for better conditions, while windsurfers tend to stay closer to town. The town gets genuinely packed in August, with a lively nightlife scene of bars, live music and beach parties alongside the daytime water sports focus - posters describe a buzzing, active atmosphere rather than a quiet beach escape this time of year.

National park access rules

The lagoons at their fullest
15 Mar – 30 Sep · usuallyHigh waterParaíso and Azul are freshwater lagoons that fill on the rains and shrink through the second half of the year, so the hammocks-in-the-water photograph only works for part of it. By December some are more sand than water.
