Morro de Sao Paulo Map
Morro de Sao Paulo lies 262 kilometres by land, or 60 kilometres by sea, from Salvador da Bahia, on the picturesque island of Tinharé. One of five villages on the island, Morro is by far the best known and visited by both Brazilian and international travelers. While the town is far from an undiscovered...
Canoa Quebrada is one of the Northeast’s most popular beach destinations and justifiably so.

Rio hostels are some of the best quality you’ll find in Brazil, but they don’t come at the budget prices you’ll find in some of the backwater towns.

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!

You can come at Iguazu (Iguacu) from either the Argentine or Brazilian side, and no matter what side you stay arrive on, you can choose either side to stay on. Either way the falls are a highlight of any Brazilian vacation.

The airport is 16km outside of the centre, and there are flights to Foz from all over Brazil, the majority from Rio de Janeiro,...
