Adventurous cruisers: check out this exotic South American itinerary
2016-11-08Journey to these South American hotspots via a luxurious cruise aboard Costa Pacifica for a vacation full of drama, culture and vibrant beauty. Cruises start from $133 per person* per day plus free onboard credit** and kids sail free*** with select sail dates.
1. Ilabela, Brazil:
Ilabela—Portuguese for “beautiful island”—is the perfect name for this oasis off the coast of Brazil. Known for its striking volcanic peaks, vivid marine life, tropical forests and nearly 360 waterfalls, the island’s biodiversity is beyond incredible. Among the most popular excursions are guided hikes through the jungle to see toucans and capuchin monkeys, as well as snorkel and scuba tours of pirate shipwrecks just below the surface.
2. Abraao, Brazil:
Abraao is a sleepy beach town known for amazing seafood and breathtaking 360 degree views. Walking and boat rides are the main method of transport, as cars are not allowed in town, contributing to the laid-back atmosphere. Abraao is also one of the top snorkeling destinations in Brazil, thanks to the thousands of colorful fish and turtles to see.
3. Rio De Janeiro, Brazil:
Seducing visitors with its vibrant culture, Rio De Janeiro is full of fascinating things to explore. Copacabana and Ipanema beaches are a must see; gathering places for locals and visitors alike. Ascend to the peak of Corcovado and take in the expansive views of the tiny surrounding islands and seaside metropolis set against the mountainous jungle. Hike through the Tijuca rainforest or take a boat ride across Baia de Guanbara. Rio is also known for its surfing, rock climbing and hang gliding. If outdoor adventures aren’t your cup of tea, sample the traditional Brazilian cuisine, explore the city’s vibrant nightlife and art galleries. The infectious beat of samba can be heard on almost every corner.
4. Montevideo, Uruguay:
The vibrant, eclectic culture of Montevideo is what makes it one of the most multifaceted South American cities. Equal parts industrial port and beachy metropolis, its historic city center, art deco buildings and thriving music and theater scene give it its international edge.
