Downtown, (Corcovado) the Jezus Statue, Copacabana and Ipanema beaches (and Ipanema beachwear), the night life and the magical surroundings.
One of the characteristic of Brasil is that The Beach is quite a central place in the lifes of the Brasilians.
Of course Rio is the place to be. A city that never sleeps either and where life buzzes everywhere around you.
Fernando do Noronha
And there is something extra. 400 km of the North East Coast there is the tiny little group of islands called: Fernando do Noronha Islands.
You get there by plane from Fortaleza or Recife and it is a little natural reserve. Brilliant! You find the beaches of all beaches, no activity and the snorkling and diving are of a high standard. Get a little hotel, they await you at the airport, and rent a bycicly. For the rest, go see all the beaches and the sealife, take a boatride a go diving. Do not forget the surfing. There were massive waves and many good surfers so it must be good.
Canoa Quebrada
On the way to Fortaleza we passed a little dune village Canoa Quebrada.
It is a village built on a dune where everything is built on the dune, even the graveyard.
But that gives you the feeling that you really live in another place. If you can make it, wake up early to watch the sunrise (or just go to bed after it). Then hire a buggy and ride the dunes. Never seen dunes like this before. It was like a desert, so big.
Take a taxi of about 80km south of Recife to the beaches of Porto das Galinhas.
