Fortaleza is but 36km away from the Cearense Saint-Tropez, Cumbuco. Surrounded by mansions and refined hotels and inns, Cumbuco is today the finest resort to be found in the state. To start with the access to it which is undertaken in a fullysignalled, first- rate paved road, the views on the way by the side of the road are a charm to the eyes of the beholder. When one gets to Cumbuco there are plenty of options for entertainement and leisure. One can choose either a sand-dune Buggy ride or then to jet-ski in the Parnamirim Lagoon, or then join in the fun of sliding down the sand dunes in the ‘‘sand-surfing’’. Basting a top-ranking infrastructure, Cumbuco provides good restaurants and the best typical food cooking to be found.
