Some of the visited tourist centers more by those who they look for to enjoy the sand and the sea are: Rio de Janeiro, with its famous beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana; the archipelago Fernando de Noronha (Pernambuco), with its multiple paradisiac beaches, declared " Patrimony of the Humanidad" by the United Nations; the city of Maceio (Alagoas), between whose beaches descata the one of the Gunga, located in the mouth of the San Miguel river; and the island of Florianópolis (Santa Catherine), in which are the beaches Of the English, Canasvieiras and another 40 more. Inland, it is possible to be visited: the exhuberante amazonian forest, lodging in the city of Manaos (Amazon) or in hotels located in the same heart of the forest; the Cataracts of the Iguazú, in the limit with Argentina, near the city of Foz do Iguaçu (Parana); and many other natural beauties.
