10 days in Joao Pessoa Itinerary

Situated at the very eastern tip of the Americas, Joao Pessoa is indeed, as its nickname suggests, "the city where the sun rises first." Known for its exceptional integration with nature, the city ranks as the greenest capital in Brazil, with countless parks and even an Atlantic rainforest reserve within its bounds.

Change things up with these side-trips from Joao Pessoa: Olinda (Casa dos Bonecos Gigantes & Centro Historico de Olinda), Conde (Coqueirinho Beach, Tabatinga Beach, &more) and Barra de Cunhau (in Canguaretama). There's lots more to do: tour the pleasant surroundings at Tambau Beach, explore the world behind art at Estacao Cabo Branco, kick back and relax at Camboinha Beach, and make a trip to Centro Historico de Joao Pessoa.
