Jijoca (also spelled Gijoca) is a village in northwestern Ceara. Its full name being Jicoca de Jericoacoara, this is mostly a brief stop where travellers heading to Jericoacoara change from conventional transport to 4x4 or similar to cross the dunes. Jijoca however is a destination of its own, increasingly popular with kitesurfers on its lakes.

Most people arrive by charters from Fortaleza, but there is also regular buses by Rendenção[1]. Other links include Sobral and Camocim. Pick up trucks leave for Jericoacoara as soon as they have 4 passengers or more, -a bumpy 40 min ride at R$ 5.

[edit] By Air

A 2500 metres runway is scheduled for completion mid 2010. The tourist industry is hoping for direct flights to Europe.
