Brazil is a priceless destination, a country that can be visited at any time of the year without great concerns about weather conditions. The only problem is to decide what natural wonders you wish to visit. Brazil offers beaches to all tastes: urban beaches, surrounded by bars and hotels, such as Ipanema and Copacabana, in Rio de Janeiro; beaches offering full infrastructure and sophistication, such as the charming Costa do Sauípe complex, in Bahia; virtually desert beaches, the home of tranquility and easiness, such as Jericoacoara, on the coastline of the city of Fortaleza; and many more.

Rio De Janeiro

The city’s weather is hot and pleasant all through the year, Rio does not depend on seasons to attract visitors. Its attractions can be appreciated any time of the year.

Whoever visits Rio soon finds out that his/her agenda is always full – that is the pride of the local population. There is always something to be done in the city, from exhibitions, theater plays, dance and music shows to sports events for all tastes – such as free flying, much appreciated by all those who enjoy strong sensations on board a hang glider floating above the most famous landscapes of Rio. But the Wonderful City has yet a wide range of other attractions to offer, such as cultural centers, numberless museums, churches, famous confectioners’, old streetcars and beaches – many beaches. Far from the beaches
Besides the millions of visitors that thrive for the landscapes and natural beauties and the wide range of culture and history offered by this especially Brazilian city, a different type of tourist has been increasingly attracted to Rio in the last few years: the business tourist. The capital of the State of Rio de Janeiro is also one of the greatest business centers in the Country, being constantly chosen to host important national and international conferences, congresses and meetings.  

Florianopolis

Maragogi

The natural beauties of Florianópolis attract thousands of visitors every year. Mainly in the summer, Brazilian and South American tourists – such as Argentineans, Uruguayans and Chileans – seek the diversity of the coast. In the island can be found, side by side, the most varied types of beaches – the long ones, with large sand strip; the small ones, encrusted in backwaters; those with strong waves; and the ones of calm sea, looking like lagoons; urbanized ones full of bathers; and deserted ones, with access by trail only. It is the paradise for surf, windsurf, sailing and fishing lovers.
Located in the subtropical coastal region, the city offers a nice climate, with the most of the rainfall occurring during the summer – between December and January. In this season of the year, the mean temperature is of 25°C. In July, the coldest month, the mean is 16.4°C. It is common to have short summers between May and August – i.e. the occurrence of a succession of hot days after the first days of the April winter.

Main destination in the State of Alagoas after its capital city, Maragogi attracts visitors from Maceió and Recife. It offers calm-wave beaches, coral reefs and a huge natural pool known as Galés. From Japaratinga beach, on the southern tip, a ferryboat crosses Manguaba River into Porto das Pedras, where visitors find virtually deserted beaches. Maragogi was initially a small village called Gamela. In 1887, it was granted the status of a Town and adopted the name of Isabel, to honor the Brazilian Princess who signed a law ending slavery in Brazil. Later on, in 1892, it was named as Maragogi after the river that baths the city. “Maragogi”, according to some historians, comes from “Marahub-gy”, or river of the Marauba tribes. The city has a tropical, hot and humid weather, with annual average temperatures of 27ºC.

Jericoacoara

Jericoacoara has several of the most beautiful beaches in Brazil, with many sand dunes and rocky coasts, coconut groves and an incredibly blue sea.  Located 310 km west of Fortaleza, Ceara’s capital, it is almost isolated and access still depends on special vehicles capable of crossing the sand dunes that separate it from the nearest road. Its streets are not paved and electricity is recent. To preserve the environment, an enormous area around the village was transformed into Ubajara and Jericoacoara National Park. Although it was founded by the hippies in the 70s, Jeri, as it is called today, still preserves the features of a small fishing village. Over the past three decades, the relationship between foreigners and inhabitants, which transformed their simple houses into inns and restaurants, has been harmonious, although they continue to practice subsistence fishing. Because of its fame, Jericoacoara now receives Brazilian and foreigner tourists that enjoy its beautiful beaches, tour the extensive coast on dune buggies, and sail on clean blue water lakes. A good program is to watch the beautiful sunset from the top of a sand dune. At night, visit the restaurants to try some of the delicious dishes prepared with fish and seafood. After dinner, the tourists can enjoy an authentic “forró” at the local bars. Those who visit Jeri beach must also visit Jijoca de Jericoacoara, a city only 20 km away, with natural beauties and constant wind to please those who practice water sports such as kitesurf and windsurf. The area’s climate is considered hot and humid with rain from summer to fall, and average temperatures between 22ºC and 35ºC. The dry season lasts from five to six months. The annual pluviometric average is 1364 mm.
