Fortaleza, Brazil, will host the first regatta of the championships on January 15-23 with the second stage on July 22-August 1 in Gdynia, Poland.

Fortaleza, the coastal capital of Ceará, will stage the one-person events – Men’s and Women’s Windsurfing, Kite, Dinghy – and Para Inclusive categories.
