Sao Miguel dos Milagres - Brazil

Located on the North Coast of Brazil, in the state of Alagoas, Sao Miguel dos Milagres is a hidden gem. Still fairly untouched by mass tourism, the area provides long sandy beaches, shaded by coconut palms. Coral reefs are just off shore, creating rockpools and lagoons. Most of the lodgings are locally run B&B’s, many of which face onto the beach.

At the beach, you can snorkel, dive, kayak, or do just about any other water sport you could image. Alternatively, a short bike ride away, there are many smaller villages to explore nearby, where you can appreciate the arts and crafts of local artisans.
