We were here with a local driver and he brought us to a very expensive spot close to the official beach but not the actual one.
Only after we complained he brought us to the official Canao Quebrada beach.
So be careful or preferably book an official tour.
The beach was very nice then and the skyline is beautiful.
It’s very touristic but still nice to be there.
A foto with the logo in the rock is a must 😉

We love a lot!!! We were staying in Fortaleza, and it was worth the trip because the place is beautiful and has lots of options! Clean beach, warm and crystal clear water. The red cliffs add even more beauty to the beach. Besides, the city is beautiful, cozy, with many options, and the staff is receptive. Broadway Street looks like a village, and there is everything there. We took the buggy tour for R$250 and it was totally worth it. I'm enchanted by the place, I would definitely go back!

Canoa Quebrada is one of the most beautiful beaches in Ceará, and ⁇ in the world. It is a place with a very impressive cultural diversity, people from different parts of the world attend. I always go to Canoa, astral here is great...

Like Maragogi, Canoa Quebrada was once a very good beach, very famous. It's gone! Not anymore! The beach today is dirty, and the bars with precarious, medieval services with prices from the Itaim Bibi de São Paulo restaurants, simply ended up with the once beauty of the beach. If you make the tour like I did, you will invariably pass through it, since it is the last beach of the tour. If you are on your own, just pass Morro Branco and the cliffs of Beberibe and forget Canoa Quebrada. Go for me!

Canoa Quebrada beach is one of the most popular in summer. Beach with cliffs, dunes and great tents. In addition to the inns and hotels in the fishing village, the place offers plenty of activities to do during the day. Canoa Quebrada is located in the municipality of Aracati, east of Fortaleza.

Canoa Quebrada beach didn't offer us any points that would allow us to evaluate it better.
We only took the 1-day Canoa Quebrada tour and in a way we regretted it, because perhaps it would have been better to see the cliffs of Morro Branco.
We had to take a buggy ride to see the Dunes, skibunfa which we didn't even do. The skibunda place is high, but falls into a tiny lagoon with green water…not attractive. In Cumbuco, the skibunda was very good.
Then there was a point where we could have walked along the beach and taken a photo at the broken canoe symbol, but they are above it so you can take the buggy ride.
Well, I didn't enjoy much of Canoa Quebrada and I wouldn't go back.
We did Jericoacoara and then we wanted to go back

This place was probably a very nice place before it was TOTALLY overrun by the ubiquitous "barracas", cheap looking beach-bar type establishments. The buggy ride is a joke, the food not that great. To see the red rocks without human additions is nearly impossible. don't get me wrong , the beach is still nice, but you have to look to the sea only. Look sideways or behind you and it's not nice

We had heard great things from our friends about this beach. Most of the people we know had been there several years ago, and, while it´s still a nice spot in Ceará´s coast, I believe it isn´t what it used to be a few years ago. First, let me tell you that this beach is FAR from Fortaleza. It´s a two-hour drive from the city, so you might consider the possibility of staying overnight. The village is nice, although a bit shabby in some parts. There are cozy little bed-and-breakfasts and hotels in an area called "Broadway", so you will have plenty of accomodation to choose from.
The sand cliffs are impressive, but their sight is now almost completely covered by the back-to-back two-story restaurants that line this beach. As far as I know, there used to be no more than two or three of them. Nowadays, there are about 10! The good part is that now you have plenty of options for a nice seafood meal, but the bad side is that several kinds of music, playing to the loudest volume, compete with each other and can be heard everywhere.
The winds, water, and mild surf continue to be the same, though, as well as the beautiful green color of the sea. It´s a VERY wide beach, so it never gets crowded, no matter how many people visit. There are entertainment options such as paragliding, sailing, donkey-riding (yes, that´s right, I said donkey). It´s still a very nice spot, but has lost some of its charm due to overexploitation for commercial purposes.

I have heard outstanding things about Canoa Quebrad which is roughly 90 minutes from Fortaleza Airport. Beautiful beaches, friendly people, good music, good food. My source is a professional travel guide from Britain. Her name is Helen Inman. She was lead guide for a trip my wife and I took across Spain and Portugal and did an outstanding job. Look her up. She owns a house 8 minutes from the beach in Canoa Quebrada. Bill Kester, SC, USA

Never a dull moment here.Everyone can have fun here.Both locals and tourists,domestic and international put away their barriers and just roam in the sun and play on the beach.
There are lots of regional food available.Fish is the preferred meat here.
In addition to the beach area there are many bars and clubs in the village above.
Lots of night life all going down in a laid back atmosphere.

Olá!
É possível acessar à praia de carro ou tem que descer alguma rampa.
Estou viajando com uma pessoa idosa , anda bem, mas subidas de rampa escadas muito íngremes fica complicado.

Olá! Estou indo para o Ceará com minha mãe, atrás de praia tranquila, queremos ver dunas e relaxar. Pensei em ficar em Aquiraz e um dia ou dois, visitar Fortaleza que é Perto. Ou acham melhor ficar em Fortaleza e passear para outros lugares?

Ola, é melhor o passeio de big ou o de quadriciclo??? Levam ao mesmo lugar???
Written January 27, 2021
Olá. Como já andamos de buggy em outros lugares, preferimos o quadriciclo. R$ 120,00 o aluguel, salvo engano, e você vai pilotando. O guia vai em outro quadriciclo mais a frente indicando o caminho. Gostamos muito. Não tenho certeza, mas acredito que o caminho de buggy seja o mesmo pois nos pontos de parada encontramos muitos.

O passeio de bug vale a pena? É possível ir até a tirolesa a pé?
Tem barracas na praia?
Qual valor do parapente?
Written July 4, 2019
Olá,
1. Passeio de bugre vale a pena para conhecer praias mais afastadas e cuidado com os preços cobrados.
2. É possível ir até a tirolesa a pé - mas não é perto e tem passeios que englobam esta atividade.
3. A praia é lotada de barraca e quiosques que fazem comidas típicas, frutos do mar e lanches além de todos os tipos de bebida.
4. Não sei o preço do parapente mas percebi vários grupos que oferecem aulas básicas.
5. Utilizar muita água, chapéu e protetor solar pois o calor e o vento desgastam demais as pessoas e crianças.
Bom passeio!!!

Olá amigos, estou com uma duvida
Estou indo pra Canoa em Julho e até então iria fazer o passeio de buggy por la ja que vou passar apenas o dia, mas um amigo meu foi e disse que tem um pessoal que dirige o seu próprio carro e leva em alguns lugares maravilhosos que é um paraíso.
Alguém sabe se isso procede?
Teriam algum contato pra me passar?
desde já agradeço
Written June 13, 2019
Pedro, esta informação procede. Nós tivemos uma triste e nada recomendável experiência com o "condutor do nosso carro". Ele não demonstrou nenhum cuidado em passar por buracos, encurtou o passeio por conta própria, esvaziou demasiadamente os pneus, tivemos que procurar um borracheiro para colocar um pouco de ar nos pneus. Foi uma pessoa mal educada. A pior experiência que tivemos por lá. Ja fizemos esse tipo de passeio em outros lugares e os condutores foram muito cuidadosos e gentis. Ou seja temos como fazer uma comparação. Minha sugestão é que entres em contato com a associação dos condutores em Canoa Quebrada e exija a apresentação de condutor credenciado.
Desejo para vocês um passeio melhor que o nosso. Aproveitem.

A Pousada dos Orixas é boa opção em canoa Quebrada. O Calçadão é uma boa pedida para a noite com seus restaurantes e bares!!!!

Bom dia!
Gostaria muito de saber de vocês que já foram. Separei 7 dias em Fortaleza, e outros 3 em Jeri(jeri já tenho a programação). Em fortaleza as praias são muito distantes e gostaria de saber alguma rota em que eu possa já conhecer as praias que ficam próximas na mesma rodagem. Pois apesar de eu ter uma quantidade de dias grande, fica muito cansativo e caro ir a uma praia por dia. Agradeço,

Olá!
Fizemos um roteiro de 9 noites, divididos entre Fortaleza, Jeri e Canoa Quebrada.
Alugamos um carro para facilitar o traslado e acho que valeu a pena.
Ficamos duas noites em Canoa Quebrada porque a ideia era não se cansar com o bate e volta, aproveitarmos mais a região e para conhecer melhor fizemos dois passeios de Buggy maravilhosos pela região.
Uma dica para Canoa: leve um pouco de dinheiro. Os caixas 24h são abastecidos de maneira irregular.
E em Jeri não há caixa eletrônico. E o acesso até a cidade, de fato é uma AVENTURA! Mas vale muito a pena! ;)
