You can park the car 10m from the beach. With 0.5m tide and up it’s deep enough. The area is semi protected by reefs. Maria Farinha is a lesser-known gem for water sports located in Paulista, Pernambuco, roughly 40 kilometers north of Recife. While Ceará spots like Jericoacoara or Cumbuco dominate the Brazilian wingfoil narrative, the Pontal de Maria Farinha offers an exceptional, flat-water arena that is highly friendly to wingfoilers—especially beginners and progressors
