PORTO DE GALINHAS

by janaina - last update: Sep 26, 2002

One of the Top 10 beaches in Brazil,Porto De Galinhas!
From Recife,take the freeway nbr 101,it's in the municipality of Ipojuca,between Cupe beach and Maracaipe.

THE RICH NATURE OF PORTO

One of the reasons that makes from Porto De Galinhas an unusual beach,is the fact its nature stills almost untouchable by the men hands.
The white sands,the cristaline tepid water,and the fact it has one of the most beautiful and big coral reef in the world (when the tide is down,you can apreciate the reefs using a snorkle only,and than also,you have the natural pools all over,where you can feed a huge nbr of amazing fishes!

ALTERNATIVE TRIPS

As an alternative trips,if diving is not on your list,you can take a good guide and go to an extint volcano,with more than 90 million years,located in Ipojuca.
The " Mangue "(a kind of swamp),is another trip that worths to take in consideration.
There you can see the " Baoba ",a beautiful tree brought from Africa by the slaves about 400 years ago!
