Truths about sheep
The water is like this only in the pictures. Getting there the water is muddy. To get to this place has to pass perrengue and is not worth it. Go through the mango, dirty water. I do not recommend
Disappointment!
It was very disappointing to visit Carneiros. We booked a tour leaving Porto de Galinhas and, upon arrival, we stayed in a very good receptive called Bora Bora, located right in front of the natural pools, which are really beautiful. The disappointment began on the catamaran ride. The first stop was in the little church, which was extremely crowded, with many boats, tents and people. The sand space is small, the church was closed and we only had about 15 minutes to take photos from the outside. Then there was the stop for the so-called “bath of clay”, which was quite strange. They were stalls with colorful clay, where people dirty themselves in the sea, without any attraction or organization. This stop also lasted about 15 minutes. The last stop was at a sand bank in the middle of the sea, which could be beautiful, but it ended up being pretty polluted visually. There were several tents and artificial settings (networks, balances) aimed only for photos, and still charged to use them. All this ends up hiding the natural beauty of the place. For those who want to go, the tip is: the catamaran ride is not worth it. What really pays off are the natural pools that are on the shore.
Calmaria
Nice place, quiet. We stayed at a receptive point with different values for Day Use (some including use of different areas of the venue and use of standup paddle and kayaking, in addition to the catamaran ride) and the values of the meals were reasonable. There are tents outside that sell marmitex and drinks for those who want something more in mind, you just can't enter the reception with this meal.
The beach is very beautiful
Praia dos Carneiros is one of Pernambuco's most famous and paradisiacal beaches, located in the municipality of Tamandaré, about 90 km from Recife. She is known for: • Warm, crystal clear waters with shades of blue and green. • Cockerels along the edge, giving that postcard look. • Natural pools formed by reefs, ideal for bathing and diving. • The church of St. Benedict, from the 18th century, right by the sea — classic setting of photos and weddings. • Catamaran rides through the Formoso River, which lead to sand banks, mangroves and clay baths.
One of the most beautiful beaches in the world!
It is that kind of tour must be for those who go to Porto de Galinhas. The beach is sensational, the stops are beautiful, what changes from the service providers is only the restaurant that stops at the return of the tour.
