São Luís, founded in 1612 by the French and later colonized by the Portuguese, is a coastal city in Maranhão. Recognized for its colonial architecture, it is surrounded by extensive golden sand beaches bathed by the Atlantic Ocean. Its colorful tiled roofs contrast with the lush green tropical vegetation that stretches down to the calm waters of São Marcos Bay, providing a unique and historic coastal landscape.
In São Luís, stay at the Hotel Luzeiros, where you can enjoy stunning views of the sea with five-star service. Then, explore the charming historic center, full of imposing colonial mansions. Afterwards, enjoy a refined lunch at the Cabana do Sol restaurant, famous for its excellent Maranhão cuisine.
