"Sand, sunshine and moonlight besides the Atlantic" Natal by akkipaa
Natal Travel Guide: 182 reviews and 420 photos
If only you could imagine: temperature +33C (29 on nights), sunshine, almost all the time, warm water, breezy winds, endless beaches, without a single man, full moon, forro, some samba, caipirinhas, camaroes and friendly people.
Now I can!
Atlantic ocean is swiping the beach of Ponta Negra so heavily that the only possible hobbies are wind surfing, sky surfing and all other surfings. Swimming is not impossible but makes gyms needless because of needed heavy workout against six feet waves.
- Pros:Sunshine so long that is lasts (5am to 5pm)
- Cons:Sunshine (use atleast protection 35)
- In a nutshell:Relaxing, warmth, winds, sands and swimming

Hi Markku
The image of you swimming by moonlight in just your socks is one to conjur with!
At first I had to do a double take as one of our South African provinces is also called Natal (now KwaZulu Natal) and initially I thought that you were writing about South Africa!
Wishing you and your family a peaceful, fulfilling and travel-filled New Year!
