Fernando
de Noronha
With many paradisiacal beaches, very rich flora and fauna and
incomparable landscapes, Fernando de Noronha
is on the top of the list among the most visited and admired
locations sought by tourists from Brazil and from all
over the world. The archipelago's good environmental conditions
have called the attention of environmentalists
from the whole planet, so much so that the islands were granted
the title of World Heritage of Humanity, granted
by Unesco, in 2002. With 21 islands, Fernando de Noronha stands
over an area of 26 km². The main island, with
that same name, is the only inhabited one, and the largest of
all - it has 17 km². Part of it is occupied by the
Fernando de Noronha National Marine Park, considered since 1988
an Environmental Protection Area (APA), with
some 8 km².

Main
Attractions
Diving in Fernando de Noronha
The archipelago of Fernando de Noronha is one of the best places
in the world for diving. The island's
crystalline waters, with visibility of up to 50 meters host
many species of fish, skate fish, sharks, turtles,
eels, barracudas, dolphins, sponges and algae, including also
rocky formations, coral reefs and shipwrecks.
Even those who do have any experience in diving can experiment
the thrilling sensation of observing the
local sea fauna in their natural habitat. At seashore on the
beaches of Atalaia and Sancho Bay and at the
natural aquariums formed by rocks at Porcos Bay, it is possible
to see a wide range of colored fish.
Surfing
2-meter high waves with peaks up to five meters high, such as
at Cacimba, Boldró, Ruro and Abrás Slabs,
are sought by surfers from all over the world, especially from
November thru April. Some stages of the
National Surf Championship are held on Fernando de Noronha.
Beaches
The most sensational thing about Fernando de Noronha is that
all the island's beaches are very pretty and
very well preserved. Local seawaters are of greenish blue tone
and are incredibly transparent. Some of them
include also some rocky formations. Below you will find a list
with main beaches.

We
also recommend
Boat tours
This is the favorite tourists' attraction. Boats sail along
the Inside Sea, offering an incredible view of
beaches from the main island of Fernando de Noronha and also
from the small islands surrounding it.
On a lucky day, visitors may see dolphins swimming close to
the boat. At Sancho Bay boats halt so visitors
can go on a free diving spree.
Buggy tours
Hoodless buggies are the most used vehicles in Fernando de Noronha.
They are used as taxis or for tours
around the island. Drivers, usually local inhabitants, may act
as tour guides and may take visitors to the
most beautiful places and to those least known corners as well.
Dolphins
observation
“Rotator” dolphins may be seen from the belvedere
looking over "Baía do Golfinhos" (Dolphins
Bay).
There, they feed and reproduce. The best hour for observations
is during the first hours of the day.
