Beach Adventures in Fortaleza, Brazil

On day one in Fortaleza, I recommend exploring some of the top attractions and experiences this city has to offer.

You'll start off with a visit to the famous Ponte dos Ingleses, also known as the English Bridge. This historic landmark offers stunning views of the ocean and is a must-see for any tourist.

Next, you'll make your way to the bustling Mercado Central, a vibrant market filled with local vendors selling everything from fresh produce to handmade souvenirs. It's the perfect place to get a taste of the culture and pick up some unique gifts.

To end your first day, you'll take a relaxing stroll along the picturesque Praia do Futuro beach, known for its white sand and crystal-clear waters. It's the perfect spot to unwind and take in the beauty of Fortaleza for sunset.

Today is the day to take a break from your explorations and spend some time relaxing on the beautiful beach. Fortaleza is known for its pristine beaches, warm sun and crystal clear waters, making it the perfect spot for some much-needed rejuvenation.

As you take a stroll along the shore, you can feel the soft sand between your toes and hear the gentle crashing of the waves. The vibrant colors of the ocean and sky are truly a sight to behold. Whether you choose to soak up the sun, take a dip in the refreshing water or simply sit back and enjoy the view, there is no better place to unwind and recharge.

And don't forget to try some of the delicious local cuisine from the beachside vendors. Fresh seafood, tropical fruits and refreshing drinks are just a few of the many options available.

Today, you'll embark on a thrilling adventure through the dunas, or sand dunes, of this beautiful city.

After a delicious breakfast, you'll head to the nearby dunes, a one-hour drive from the hotel, where you will be greeted with stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean. Your professional guide will lead you through the sandy hills, and you will have the opportunity to partake in various adrenaline-pumping activities such as sandboarding and dune buggy rides.

As you make your way through the dunas, you'll also have the chance to learn about the local flora and fauna, as well as the rich history of this area.

Day four is the day to take a break from the hustle and bustle of city life and head to the tranquil beach town of Taiba in Ceara. This picturesque destination is known for its stunning beaches, warm weather and laid-back atmosphere.

After a short drive from Fortaleza, you'll arrive at Taiba, where you will spend your day relaxing and embracing the peaceful surroundings. Take a stroll along the sandy beach, dip your toes in the crystal-clear waters or simply lounge under the shade of a palm tree.

For those looking for a bit more adventure, you can try your hand at surfing or kitesurfing, both popular activities in Taiba. As the day comes to an end, witness a beautiful sunset (if you're lucky!) over the ocean before unwinding with a delicious local meal.

If you're a seafood lover, then you've come to the right place. Fortaleza's Mercado is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience the freshest and most affordable seafood. Here you can find a wide variety of fish, shrimp, crab and more at unbeatable prices and relax having Brazilian caipirinhas when watching the sunset when the fresh seafood (of your choice) is getting prepared for you.
