Lençóis Kiteboarding Atins

Lençóis Kiteboarding is a kitesurf school in Atins, a fishing village in the heart of the Lençóis Maranhenses (Maranhão). It presents itself as the only full-service kite club in the Lençóis: it organises the trip from arrival to the lessons.

Founder Marquinhos, from the Ceará coast, has been sailing since 2007; fluent in French, he became a reference for the kite expeditions reaching Atins along the Rota das Emoções. Lessons take place on Atins beach and in the Lençóis lagoons, where the water is flat and tide-free.

The school highlights modern gear, top-line safety equipment, a multilingual team (Portuguese, English, Spanish, French, Italian, German) and over 20 years of experience, according to its website.
