HISTORICAL/CULTURAL ANGRA
  • Tip Rating:
  • Like many Brazilian colonial cities,Angra was deeply influenced by the Catholic church!
    In a small area it's possible to find a great nbr of convents,churches and monuments,even at the little islands,which is very charming!
    The downtown Angra was built in curves,following the wind that blows all day!
    Besides the churches,there are a little left from the old colonial style.
    Even though a promenade at downtown Angra can give a nice surprise!
    Al list of historical buildings and churches is following:
    1.Churches you just can't miss:Sao Bernardino De Sena & Nossa Senhora Do Carmo convents,Lapa and Boa Morte(museum of sacred art),Matriz Nossa Senhora Da Conceicao,Ermida Do Senhor Do Bom Fim,Piedade,Ribeira,Santa Luzia!
    2.Buildings you just can't miss:Colegio Naval building,Santa Luzia bay,Mmbucaba vilage,Fish market,Chafariz Da Carioca,Aquidaba shipwreck monument(mentioned before),Municipal Council and The City Hall buildings.

    NONE GETS BORED HERE
  • Tip Rating:
  • In Angra you can enjoy the beach,the bars along the coast,trips to the small islands,to explore the forest and practice many kinds of sports such as biking,
    diving,fishing,skiing,paragliding,rafting, surf and sailing.
    A good and cheap option,in case you don't have a boat,is to rent one,at the Santa Luzia Dock.
    You can rent a boat to take you to the islands and back,or rent a boat for the entire day.
    Charges changes from the diferent points you want to visit and the nbr of people.

    Sailboat Tour
  • Tip Rating:
  • One fun and inexpensive thing to do in Angra Dos Reis is to take an all-day sailboat trip. The boat we got on with was brightly colored and had a young, energetic crew of locals. We toured the coastline and stopped at several secluded islands and beaches throughout the day. We also saw flying fish! We came back around sunset. Food and drinks (caiparinhas!) were provided. It was a great experience.

  • Directions: Book beforehand and meet the boat at the beach first thing the next morning.

    Extremely sunny day!
    if you can afford it (pretty expensive) it's definitely worth to take a half day boat trip to the close islands, though you wouldnt find any desert island here: some of them are hotel's properties or private, or rented by wealthy brazilian and nonbrazilian people for good weather period..anyway nice beaches, wild nature and much of sun. for me it was even too much..being not very used to such sun's activity unfortunately later that day i felt sick and had to go to the nearest local hospital for emergencies (ha! another interesting experience)...my compation tought i had malaria (crazy he was!) because before we've been on Amazon river...but of course it wasnt , anyway all went fine all i had was a sun hit. getting back to the trip-you can book it at any hotel you stay in.
