Porto de Galinhas
Watch the tides! Some areas are shallow and great for swimming during high tide but not so much during low. I didn’t check and ended up walking a lot further!
I recommend getting to the beach by 8 AM before it gets too hot and packed. You'll have the best sunrise views and some peace for swimming.
Lencois Maranhenses National Park
Consider hiring a local guide; they know the best spots that aren’t super crowded. I missed some hidden gems because I explored on my own!
I suggest going right after sunrise, around 6 AM. The light is beautiful for photos and the temperatures are much cooler.
Chapada Diamantina National Park Bahia
Lensois-Maranyunsis National Park
I recommend visiting between 6 AM and 8 AM for the best light for photos and way less crowds. It really makes a difference!
My advice is to rent a 4x4 vehicle. The roads can get pretty rough, and a good car saves you time and gives you more freedom to explore.
Lensois-Maranienses National Park
Don’t forget to pack a reusable water bottle! There are spots to refill, and it helped me save money instead of buying plastic bottles all day.
I recommend bringing cash, especially for local food stalls and activities. Some places don't take cards, and you'll miss out on delicious snacks if you’re not prepared!
Jeribucacu Beach
Botanical Garden of Recife
Wear comfy shoes because you’ll do a bit of walking. Not super intense, but the paths can be uneven, and you don't want to be uncomfortable while enjoying the scenery.
Fernando de Noronha
Lencois Maranhenses National Park Trek
Engenhoca Beach
Bring your own snacks and drinks. The beach has limited options and they can be pricey. I learned this the hard way, so save some cash.
