Brazil Beaches

by Dave Jackson

This exotic coast line offers honeymooners quite waters and boating activities second to none. Your bungalow at the Pestana Angra will have an ocean view and a private Jacuzzi on the balcony. With tropical weather and more than 5,000 miles of gorgeous coastline, Brazilian life and culture revolves around the beach. It is little wonder that Brazil is one of the world?s top suppliers of high quality, beautiful swimwear, for both grown-ups & children. Natal is framed by stunning beaches and and massive sand dunes that run all along its 40 kilometer coastline. Natal is a clean, safe and friendly place for visitors and has relatively few high-rise buildings and little traffic interfering with the beautiful surrounding landscape.

Continuing along the coast, you can enjoy a vacation in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil’s third most populated city. Its cultural and architectural richness make it an important and historical landmark. Tucked away on the north-east coast of Brazil it is home to some 2 million inhabitants and outside of Brazil, virtually unknown. Fortaleza, with almost three hundred years of history and a complete infrastructure, welcomes tourists.

Agriculture accounts for about 5% of GDP (25% when including agribusiness) and 36% of Brazilian exports. Brazil enjoyed a positive agricultural trade balance of $40 billion in 2007.

Although this is more famously known as the “family beach” among Brazil beaches, it is nonetheless the beach to go to if you want to see the girls parading the latest designs in tropical swimwear. Indeed Ipanema beach is the spiritual home of the “tangas” - the mini-bikini! Others go to watch passers by, to check out the latest in swimwear fashion, to hunt for a partner. Then, as on many other beaches, there are those who take a good book and read while getting a tan, or those who surf the rolling waves of the Atlantic crushing on the beaches.

When you’re traveling with family - or an entourage - you might need to upgrade from hotel to house. Brazilian Beach House has high-end options in and around Trancoso, Espelho beach and Itacar. Each villa comes with a chef, a concierge and a staff who can wrangle invitations to under-the-radar parties (www.brazilianbeachhouse.com ; from $7,000 a week). With the help of the knowledgeable professionals at AR Tourism Brazil, you will undoubtedly uncover the option that is perfect for you. It is recommended that you contact us early in your vacation planning stages, as many of the more exclusive Brazilian resorts require early booking to obtain a reservation.
