What to do and see in Ponta Negra, State of Rio Grande do Norte (RN): The Best Outdoor Activities

November 12, 2021 Nicolette Lion

Gateway to the stunning beaches of Rio Grande do Norte, the city of Natal is perched on Brazil's Atlantic coast, at the mouth of the Potengi River. Escape the bustle at secluded Pipa and Pirangi beaches or live it up at Genipabu and Tibau do Sul. The city is surrounded by Dune State Park. Go on a buggy ride over 30-foot sand dunes or tour the dunes on a dromedary tour. The city is home to the cleanest air on the continent, according to NASA, and also to the world's largest cashew tree.

Jangada Show

Morro do Careca is a military area so its land access is prohibited. Our boat takes you to Tartarugas Beach where the Tamar project conserves the Turtles' nests. It is 20 minutes to reach the Beach 30 minutes of bath and 25 minutes to return totaling an hour and 15 minutes of walking. The landscapes are composed of cliffs cacti dunes kills atlantic off the black rocks that give name to Ponta Negra Beach..the sailors will tell the history of the region on the way. The bath is in shallow and clean water on a deserted beach where sailors take lots of pictures. On the way back we will look for the Dolphins that are very frequent in the region because our sea is full of their favorite food the mullet. We can not guarantee their presence on the tour because the tour is ecological and historic landscaping. But the incidence is around 70% of the tours and 20% of turtles. You can not visit the RN without knowing the beauties around the Morro do Careca!

Morro do Careca

Reviewed By Amiga007

Lot of 'kioskos' (beach chiringuitos) - my favorite is N°5, from Ignacio. Lot of seller's on the beach, you can have great pancakes (try carne de sol com queijo or Chocolate / banana), Great skewers (best are camaroes), drinks, and much much more. All good and at cheap price. Nice big waves every day, sea water is hot all year long, great views. Just take care about the tide, sometimes at high tide the beach becomes very narrow.
