Understand

Jericoacoara, a hidden gem in Brazil, is a place of tranquility and simplicity. Unlike the bustling modern world, this coastal village offers peaceful sandy streets, endless beaches, and a perfect blend of warm water and gentle breezes. Just a few decades ago, Jericoacoara was a secluded fishing village with no roads, electricity, or modern amenities. It was a place where money was rarely used, and time seemed to slow down. However, since its declaration as an Environmental Protection Area in 1984 and the subsequent establishment as a National Park in 2002, Jericoacoara has undergone changes. Electricity has arrived, allowing for hot showers and air conditioning, but the illumination of the streets is still forbidden by local law, preserving the village's unique charm. Discover the untouched beauty of Jericoacoara, where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and embrace a simpler, more peaceful existence.
