Brasil
Yes, Brasil is actually spelled with an S. It's home for me, which might explain why I never get tired of it - the food, the music, and a coastline that ranges from wild islands to big city beach culture.
Fernando de Noronha
Beaches, nature & experiences
A protected archipelago off the northeast coast - limited daily entries, no chain hotels, and some of the clearest water in the Atlantic. Plan three to four nights minimum; getting in and out is half the day.
Rio de Janeiro
Beaches, views & experiences
Base in Ipanema or Leblon - calmer than Copacabana and walkable to everything. Five full days is enough for the highlights, but more full days is even better! Pick a few options from below:
Pernambuco
Beaches, islands & experiences
Most trips fly into Recife and fan out from there - south to Porto de Galinhas and Carneiros, north into Alagoas for São Miguel dos Milagres. Tap a city to open its full list.
