Travel Program (week 2) 

3 Days in Porto de Galinhas

Porto de Galinhas is considered to be the best beach coastline on the north-east coast of Brazil. About an hour and a half from Recife, we will be spending 3 days there.

The diverse environment of Porto de Galinhas ensures a true paradise. The beauty of the beaches is magnified by the natural treasure of coral reef pools, some of which are 8 metres deep, in essence they are natural aquariums where you can bathe with fish , prawns and lobsters in water at 28 ° Celsius.

Porto de Galinhas is a serious luxury destination providing its visitors with a range of good hotels and fine restaurants. Situated in a most beautiful part of Pernambuco which in many respects emphasizes the contradictions which are evident in many parts of Brazil.

There are many magnificent structures and buildings from the colonial days of the Portuguese and Dutch invasions, the legacy is visible with 60km of sugar and coconut plantations running from coast to coast in the region.

Day 4 - Return to Recife

Guided tour of Recife, capital of the state of Pernambuco. View historic buildings, visit local markets and eat lunch at one of the famous restaurants in the Old City. Continue to Olaria de Francisco Brennand, a well-known ceramic factory and museum, and view first-hand artisans plying their craft in Brazil.
