Jericoacoara / Fortaleza


(June 17th - June 22nd)

Jericoacoara is a resort town in the eastern Brazilian state of Ceará. It’s known for wide Jericoacoara Beach. Restaurants and bars line its sandy streets. Principal Square is at its heart, on Rua Principal, the lively main road. The town is ringed by freshwater lagoons such as Paradise and Blue lagoons, and by Jericoacoara National Park, with vast sand dunes. Sunset Dune is a popular sundown viewpoint.

Fortaleza is the capital of the northeastern Brazilian state of Ceará. It's known for its beaches, which are punctuated by red cliffs, palm trees, dunes and lagoons. Fortaleza’s long-standing folkloric traditions are presented in dance performances at the art nouveau José de Alencar theater, open since 1910. Another architectural highlight is the neo-Gothic Catedral Metropolitana.
