Recife is a coastal city with meandering canals and historic bridges. Founded in 1537, its origins date back to Portuguese colonization. Its landscapes include golden sand beaches, coconut groves and a modern skyline that contrasts with preserved historic buildings, reflecting its rich cultural and architectural heritage.
Recife has several leisure options, restaurants and tourist attractions. We recommend visiting Boa Viagem beach, especially during low tide, to enjoy the natural pools. For an immersion in local cuisine, it is a must to taste the dishes at the Chica Pitanga restaurant. If you have time to spare, try booking a helicopter flight to visit nearby cities.
