Traveller tips

Don't forget to pack sunscreen and a hat to protect yourself from the strong Brazilian sun. Be sure to try the local delicacy, tapioca, a delicious crepe made from cassava flour. Bargaining is common at the local markets, so don't be afraid to negotiate for souvenirs. Keep an eye out for sea turtles and colorful fish while snorkeling in the natural pools. Lastly, be respectful of the environment and avoid touching or stepping on the coral reefs.
