Porto de Galinhas, Brazil, (Port of Chickens
in English) is 30 miles (57 Km) south of Recife. It is a great tourist
attraction because of its fantastic beaches. When slave traffic was prohibited,
the word "chickens" became the code name for slaves. This is where the
name of the town is dervied from. The surrounding sea is characterized
by reefs that make it almost like a fish tank. In the natural pools they
create tourists can dive among the many colorful fish. In low tide you
can walk to these pools, but the best way is to rent a raft along the beach.
You can get any equipment by renting in the town. It is a great beach getaway
with a well developed infrastructure for the tourist searching for a special
sun and surf haven. Here the sun and sea lover can find just the right
hotel for his stay.
