Explore the Sao Francisco River Nature Sanctuary on this exciting full-day trip by boat. After a hotel pick-up in Maceio, drive along scenic, coconut-lined roads to the quaint fishing village of Piaçabuçu. Along the banks of the “Old Chino,” board a charming tour boat, and head for the mouth of the longest river in Brazil, the Sao Francisco. Embrace exotic nature and superb landscapes as you cruise along the river to a broad and fine sand beach. As you sail, a knowledgeable tour guide will tell you about the importance of this pristine environmental preservation area. Look out for the array of migratory birds that flock to the shifting dunes. Dine on a delicious buffet lunch, prepared on board the boat. After lunch, soak up the beautiful and natural surroundings as you swim, or simply sink your toes in the sand and relax on the beach.
