The base: five days in the city
With a week, first follow the five-day itinerary — seafront, natural pools, south coast, historic centre and Cabedelo — and use the two remaining days to leave the city. João Pessoa sits halfway between Natal and Recife, and almost everything is under three hours away.
Days 6 and 7: pick two day trips
- Pipa (RN), about 150 km: cliffs, Baía dos Golfinhos and a lively village at night. Leave early.
- The Brejo — Areia and Bananeiras —, about 130 km: hills, cachaça mills, historic houses and cool air.
- Pernambuco: Itamaracá and Coroa do Avião, about 105 km away, or Olinda, around 116 km.
- Lucena, across the river: ferry from Cabedelo, quiet beaches and the Guia sanctuary — a half-day trip.
- Barra de Camaratuba or Baía da Traição, on the north coast, for an almost deserted beach.
How to combine them
- Nature and beach: Pipa and the north coast.
- History and culture: the Brejo and Olinda.
- Family with small children: Lucena and Itamaracá, closer and with calm sea.
Alternate: a day on the road, a beach day in the city. And keep the last day free — that is when many people realise they want to go back to Picãozinho.
