Experience Joao Pessoa
Joao Pessoa is a stunning jewel among Brazil’s easy, breezy beach towns. Fun in the sun is front and center at this safe and relaxed beachside oasis on the easternmost point of the Americas. Visitors can enjoy world-class surfing and windsurfing, or just relax on the shore. Better yet, head out on one of the local boats that anchor near the offshore coral reefs and explore the tide pools! When you want to try something different, Joao Pessoa has a magnificent colonial heritage preserved in its monuments, buildings, and the Convent of Saint Francis of Assis, built in the 1500s. Couples will love the romantic sunset of Jacare Beach, accompanied by Ravel’s Bolero, or the tranquil lagoon right in the center of town. At night, Joao Pessoa has a lively cultural calendar, playing host to high-profile events on a weekly basis, from gallery openings to street carnivals, rodeos, and music festivals. Come to northern Brazil’s sunny green oasis and see what Joao Pessoa has for you!
