Explore stunning beaches and the enchanting island on this Day Trip to Igarassu and Itamaracá. Departing from Recife, you'll spend an unforgettable day discovering the natural beauty of these coastal gems in Brazil.

Day Trip Details

Your adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel in Recife, after which we will journey northward towards the historic town of Igarassu. This charming locale is recognized as the second-oldest settlement in Brazil, showcasing streets imbued with the rich heritage of its first inhabitants amidst lush landscapes. Get ready to be captivated by Praia do Capitão.

The initial stop will be at an exclusive beach club situated on Capitão Beach. This serene haven provides everything you require for a perfect day of relaxation, including comfortable hammocks, sun loungers, and a gentle sea breeze. You can indulge in some local cuisine or, if you prefer more excitement, rent kayaks or partake in other activities available on-site.

Continuing our journey, we will board a catamaran to navigate the northern coastline. While aboard, we’ll head towards the illustrious island of Itamaracá. Here, you will discover the story behind the renowned "Ciranda de Lia" and explore the impressive Fort Orange, a historic Dutch stronghold that has stood guard over the coast since the 17th century.

As the trip winds down, we will make a stop at the picturesque island of Coroa do Avião, a stunning sandbank encircled by crystal-clear waters and pristine nature. You will have some leisure time to enjoy a refreshing swim in this idyllic environment before we embark on our return journey to your hotel.

The experience concludes approximately 8 hours later at your accommodation. We look forward to seeing you again!
