Ponta de Castelhanos

Reviewed By V8415IHandyl - San Francisco, United States

Pretty much the entire island of Boiepba is paradise - long stretches of stunning beaches, the freshest seafood, exotic fruits, calm, warm oceans....I dream all the time of going back. But among the beaches on the island Castelhanos stood out. The one establishment served hot, crispy pastel and drinks with any number of tropical fruits. Most of the people seemed to stay at the restaurant or right on the beach in front of it leaving the long stretch of gorgeous beach deserted and ours to explore alone. It was so lovely it almost didn't seem real. The only downside was that the only way we found to get there was part of a daylong boat trip. However, that day was fantastic with several memorable stops around the island (Bainema, Cova de Onça, Canavieiras, a sandbar in the middle of nowhere). We hoped to hire a boat to take us back to Castelhanos but were unable to. Whatever disappointment we felt was quickly forgotten as we lounger around Praia Cueira eating fresh octopus cooked with banana.

Cueira Beach

Reviewed By V8415IHandyl - San Francisco, United States

Of all the beaches around Boipeba we spent most of our time lounging around Praia Cueira. A bit of a hike from town it was still close enough to get to easily. And while we weren't the only ones on the beach we were able to find a quiet spot to relax. The water was calm and warm, the views were stunning, and I found all the stress of the outside world melting away. The beach is long enough for a nice, long stroll and to allow people to spread out. So even if it's a busy day it still feels calm and private. Rustic barracas dot the beach offering tropical drinks made with exotic fruits, cold beer, and the freshest seafood you could want. While Guidos down the beach is the most famous spot we found Glede to have better food, cheaper prices, and way less fuss. I've never been great at letting go and relaxing but Cueira helped change that.

Morere

Reviewed By MissTMontreal - Montreal, Canada

One of thy favourite places on Earth, but just for the ones who are looking for spending some time in an isolated place where the pace of life is slow. I really hope Morere will never become too touristy and explored, because it's its simplicity, calmness, pristine waters, and the smily and relaxed people that make this little town such a paradise.
