Salvador
Wandering the streets of the Pelourinho, admiring the decaying colonial architecture, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped back in time to the 16th and 17th Century! Wander some more, passing rodas de capoeira, listening to thumping African drums, and smelling the wafting odors of aracajé (bean and...

Canoa Quebrada Map
Canoa Quebrada is just a quick jaunt from Fortaleza and as a result it is frequented by many local Brazilians. Compared to Jericoacoara, it’s a beautiful beach, but a lot less hassle to get to making it a popular spot for those with less time to travel Brazil!
You can see some of Canoa Quebrada’s...

Praia da Pipa |

Praia da Pipa has a range of hostels, all with relatively good amenities, from guest kitchens, to swimming pools, internet access and games and activities. Since the town is small, it’s fairly easy to walk around to several places to find accommodation on arrival; however, if you’re arriving in the high season, you will most likely want (and need) to book ahead...

Jericoacoara is located approximate 300km West of Fortaleza, in the state of Ceará.

If you’re coming in late try and book Jericoacoara...

The party starts early in Jericoacoara, and it goes all night. It’s not hard to find people in this little village and the caipirinhas flow freely! The parties often spill out on to the beach and the music will keep you going all night long. For a such a little village Jeri parties hard! A beach side nap is great for next day recovery.

Ilha Grande does not have a vast selection of restaurants, in fact they are about as sparse as anywhere you can go in Brazil. That being said you will be able to find some great authentic Brazilian cooking here and many Ilha Grande Hostels have close by restaurants or their own food. Enjoy the experience!
