A Glimpse of Brazil

Travel in Brazil offers an amazing opportunity to see gorgeous scenery, try a variety of exotic dishes, and to immerse yourself in an incredibly rich culture. Brazil is one of most diverse countries in the world. Before the Portuguese arrived in 1500, the country was inhabited by many different native tribes of Brazil. After the Portuguese came the French, Dutch and other Europeans, slaves from Africa, and a huge population of Italians and Germans to live in the South of Brazil. Americans founded the city of Americana in São Paulo after the Civil War in the US. During the Colonial times in Brazil, the Europeans went to the West to explore the country and to hunt for gold and other rich minerals. But the explorers left their families on the coast and took African slaves and natives of Brazil with them. This fact completely and forever changed the ethnic structure of Brazil because some of the adventurers took many years to return home – up to 20 years in some cases - and they mixed with native of Brazil and the African slaves. In fact, there was a mix between whites and blacks, whites and natives of Brazil, and natives of Brazil and blacks. Later on there would be new mixing with Japanese, Chinese, Arabs, and others. This mixing wasn’t only of blood, but also combined several cultural backgrounds in the same country – united by speaking the same language.

If you travel around Brazil you will notice the different kinds of architecture, food, ways of dress, cultural habits, and the list goes on. It is like visiting many different countries connected inside one. It is a fascinating variety of things and a pleasure to be able to see how this fact does not interfere in their lives but instead creates a strong national bond. You can especially see that special nationalism when traveling while the National Futebol “Soccer” Team is playing or during the period of Carnival. From rich to poor, North to South, white, blacks and morenos (browns,) all people celebrate Brazil. Brazil  Travel is an experience of a lifetime can teach us how to live together as a nation while respecting our differences.

We could not forget to talk about Brazil’s natural beauties. A huge coast line with amazing beaches, natural pools, the incredible Amazon rain forest, the 275 foot drop of Iguassu Falls, Rio De Janeiro, a mix of mountains, beaches, music and the Carnival - the biggest and most popular party of the whole world. Salvador is the most vibrant African City outside of Africa with its exotic food, dance and history. The list goes beyond that with the Brazilian way of life that enchants many who come to see it. Travel in Brazil is an amazing experience all year round. With five different climates and covering nearly half of South America, you will always find a good trip in this incredible country.

For the eighth consecutive year, Porto de Galinhas (State of Pernambuco) has been voted as the best beach destination in Brazil by the readers of revista “Viagem e Turismo” (Travel and Tourism magazine), the most popular tourism publication sold in newstands in Brazil.

The region of Porto de Galinhas has more than 16 km of white sandy beaches with coconut trees, crystal clear warm water (average temp. 28º Celsius) and natural pools. Although only 56 km (40 minutes by car) from Guararapes International Airport in Recife, the town seems to be far from city life. There are 7 linked beaches from Camboa to Maracaípe and its beautiful “Pontal”, taking in Muro Alto, Cupe and Porto de Galinhas beach.

Porto de Galinhas boasts hotels of international acclaim and world standard resorts but also cozy family inns offering accommodations so close to the beach that it is possible to sleep to the sound of waves lapping the shore.

Porto de Galinhas is situated in the municipality of Ipojuca to the South of Recife. Besides the aforementioned beaches, Ipojuca has 3 more beaches to the South of the town – Enseadinha, Serrambi and Cacimbas – about 32 km of coastline, making it the town with the longest stretch of coast in the State of Pernambuco.

The town of Porto de Galinhas is very small; indeed, only a couple of streets with a central square, called “Pracinha”. The village concentrates gourmet restaurants, souvenir shops and the residences of the local dwellers; most hotels occupy spaces along the beach, both North of Porto (towards Muro Alto) and South of Porto (towards Maracaípe). Also, it is from the village that visitors depart to boat and buggy trips to other beaches in the region.

Besides beaches, Ipojuca has numerous sugar cane mills that have produced and exported sugar to Europe for hundreds of years. These mills can now be visited by anyone interested in this period of Brazil’s history by joining a guided tour taking in the following sites:

• Engenho Gaipó, which today is a tourist attraction due to its colonial mansion;
• Engenho Massangana, where the abolitionist Joaquim Nabuco lived during his
childhood, located between Cabo de Santo Agostinho and Ipojuca;
• Engenho Curuassu, which has a beautiful waterfall;
• Engenho Canoas, which still produces molasses and rapadura (hard chunks of raw
brown sugar candy) and where the feast of St. Anthony is celebrated on June 13th;
• Engenho Trapiche, birthplace of the famous Count of Boa Vista, whose name was
given to the main avenue in the centre of Recife, capital of Pernambuco, and
• Engenho Tabatinga, whose patron saint is Santa Luzia, where a battle between the
locals and the Dutch took place.

The origin of the name is well known. Porto de Galinhas means in Portuguese “Port of Chickens”. In the second half of the 19th century, the Brazilian Imperial government imposed restrictions to the commerce of slaves, which were widely used as manpower in the sugarcane farms. To circumvent the prohibition, the “black ships” (which transported slaves from Africa to Brazil) looked for other places to moor, further away from the usual Recife harbour. One such place was in the bays around Suape and Ipojuca. When a ship arrived in Porto de Galinhas, as it was prohibited to mention slavery, the word spread as “there are new chickens in the port”; hence, the place gained its name.

Reportedly, GOL LINHAS AÉREAS INTELIGENTES, the second largest airline in Brazil, is negotiating, in cooperation with Air France-KLM, the possibility to use Curaçao (Netherlands Antilles) as a hub between South and North America. Gol also would have plans to establish an operational base in the island and most likely to station one of its Boeing 737-800 there.

The interest around Hato Airport rises because one of the new shareholders of GOL - a Brazilian investor - holds also 80% of Curaçao Airport Partners.

Curaçao International Airport (HATO) has had, since 2003, a 30-year concession to develop, operate and maintain the airport. The airport currently serves 1 million passengers per year and has the longest runway in the Caribbean region.

GOL offers daily flights to more destinations in Brazil than any other national airline. With the GOL and VARIG brands, the company flies to 59 destinations, connecting all of Brazil’s major cities and ten Latin American destinations, in Argentina (Buenos Aires, Cordoba and Rosario), Bolivia (Santa Cruz de la Sierra), Venezuela (Caracas), Chile (Santiago), Colombia (Bogota), Paraguay (Asuncion), Peru (Lima) and Uruguay (Montevideo).
