Join us at Porto de Galinhas to discover true nirvana. Imagine yourself floating on crystal-clear waters of scintillating blue. Imagine little colourful fish sucking playfully at your toes. Imagine groves after groves of huge and hairy coconuts. All this and more is what you can experience on this tour of Porto de Galinhas, a calm fishing town which is considered by many one of Brazil’s most appealing resorts.

Make your way to this tranquil beach to forget all about the hustle and bustle of the big cities and let your worries distil in the turquoise waters. The area now covered by the magnificent resort used to be an underground slave trade port of Porto de Galinhas, way back in the 19th century. As you lie on the soft sand and imagine the boats of old approaching these shores filled with helpless people from the other side of the ocean about to be forced into the slave trade, you can’t help but feel relief for the times we live in and for the beautiful experience this space now offers.

The ways in which you can enjoy this entourage are many. Hop aboard a traditional fishing raft – called a “jangada” – and sail amidst the hypnotizing reef pools, or rev up a buggy and rumble off to explore the neighbouring beaches: Pontal de Maracaipe and Muro Alto. A buggy is not only a great form of transport for its easy manoeuvrability, it is also lots of fun to ride on the sand. You’ll feel like the king of the beach.
