Arraial do Cabo

In March, I finally made it to a place that had been sitting on my dream list for a while, Arraial do Cabo, often called the Brazilian Caribbean.

I’d seen the photos before, but nothing prepares you for just how unreal it looks in person. The water is so clear it feels like glass, shifting between shades of turquoise and deep blue. The kind of place that makes you pause and be grateful for the moment.

Every beach looked like a slice of paradise...white sand, warm sun, and that calm, crystal-clear sea that makes you feel like time just slows down. I spent hours just floating, walking barefoot on the shore, and soaking in the kind of beauty that makes you fall in love with the planet all over again.
