Sightseeing

Great Museum, Flows perfectly in the space they got. They show an 18 min video in English\French which takes you on a journey through the whole canning process and Factory regimen. I recommend watching the video before you walk around. It's great for kids and adults.

Conseils sur la ville

Déplacements

Walking to the beach, Car, Uber, Taxis, and Shuttles after

We recommend that you walk to the beach and leave the car at the apartment as parking maybe be limited. Shuttles are a cheap way to travel from the airport and around the city. Uber and Taxis are an alternative to driving. There are car rentals nearby also but we recommend that you rent it at the airport.
Que faut-il apporter?

Bring comfortable shoes, flipflops and beach towels

Praia da Rocha is a fun place during the day with beach and swimming pool activities and with a vibrant nightlife. As we are close to the ocean we sometimes feel a cool breeze at night so bring a sweater or a light jacket for the evening strolls.

Shopping

We have a very big supermarket near us called Continente. We recommend the big superstores as they are more competitive. There are some street vendors that you can find while travelling on the roads with fresh fruit that are fun to stop, prices are always listed and are sold by the kilogram.
