Natal, Brazil
Natal is on the wish list of the adventurous
Travelers from all over the world have to stay at home for the moment and many dream of the sunny coasts of Brazil and especially of Natal on the northeastern tip of Brazil. There are many secluded beaches, huge dunes, lagoons and picturesque fishing villages all over the city. But the city has more to offer than just idyllic relaxation by the sea, because it is known for the buggies with which you can race over the dunes. Zip along the coast in a convertible buggy during the day, then relax in an ocean view accommodation and watch the gentle waves lapping on the sun-kissed beach.
