Wonderful walk, beautiful beach, walk to the center just and necessary. The very loving guide, we got lost and waited for us very patiently. I recommend taking the boat ride.
The guide Firmino was well...

The guide Firmino was very friendly and explained a lot about the city and the state throughout the tour (the initial part travels through some famous points of the city). I will give 3 stars due to the dissatisfaction with the optional tour offered during the journey to the beach. In the words of the guide himself: the tour would begin at 12h, with a duration of 1h40, in a catamaran with a transparent floor to see the fish, water at your disposal and snorkel for diving in a natural pool. In practice, it was nothing like this: we left only at 12:40, the transparent floor was tiny and restricted to very few passengers, the sea was very agitated and the place of diving too, so that only two people entered the water and one of them was injured. This option cost R$60 per Cover and, despite understanding that it is not possible to control the conditions of the sea, it lacked greater care from the operator — such as offering some discount or courtesy — to compensate for the general disappointment, since virtually all participants of the tour were complaining. Anyway, the rest of the tour is worth it, just stay away from this optional one.

The sea is beautiful but lack structure, has no place with a shower and seems to have stopped in time in relation to the evolution in tourism... had gone a few years ago and had no improvement... what a pity. But the beach is warm and clear water very clear.

The beach is simply wonderful. Clean sandy, clear and calm sea in the morning, after 12:00 there are already strong waves!
