Rio Grande do Norte

Northern Coast

After Genipabu, the Northern Coast of the State of Rio Grande do Norte beings to offer even nicer, wilder and almost desert beaches. Usually, they are near a small and quiet fishermen town where we can eat delicious crustaceous dishes, drink a very cold beer or taste the delicious local soft drikn called caipirinha [kipee'reenia]...

Dunes, Coconut trees and Turquoise Seas

At the horizon, the blue sea waters stretch far away until mergeing with the blue sky. The white dunes with fine and white sands complete this marvellous landscape.

Without all the fame of its decane Copacabana, Ipanema Beach, in the borough with the same name, in a very short time became as well known as its older sister Copacabana, and nowadays is the prefered beach of cariocas who are in and of tourists.

Well known all over the world, Copacabana beach is, automatically, the very first beach that all foreign visitors go to see. Surely, actually, it is mainly to visit one of the city's post cards, because in the week-ends and on holidays the beach is very crowded.
