This idyllic location is a true haven that left me longing to stay. The sun's radiance and the clear azure waters transported me to a Miami beach. It was simply the best.

Rio das Ostras boasts the most stunning beach in the area, which is a must-see for any beach lover. The journey to the beach is an experience in itself, with the option of taking either the picturesque trail or the sandy beach route. During our visit in July, which coincided with the whales' breeding season, we were treated to a magnificent sight of two whales putting on a spectacular show. The tranquil ambiance and the breathtaking scenery make it a perfect spot for relaxation and rejuvenation.
