20th April - 24th April
Because it was the Easter weekend, pretty much EVERYWHERE was fully booked! I managed to get one night on Ilha Grande, a beautiful island about an hour away from Rio. The hostel overlooked the bay with a gorgeous beach and you can walk through jungle area to get to waterfalls etc. Heard a lot of monkeys too but didnt see any! Shame I could only get one night, but just as I was leaving hundreds of tourists were turning up for Easter so probably a good thing. Took a 5-hour bus journey to Ubatuba which was actually even nicer than Ilha Grande. One beach was this amazing stretch of white sand, where all the surfers go, but then you walk another half hour or so through trees to get to another really small but beautiful beach in a tiny cove. There were hardly any people here because you can't reach it by car and the water was really calm and lovely to swim in. Had a really relaxing few days here soaking up the sun 😊
