Brazil Adventure with Wilderness SUP

Do you fancy some SUP and surf action in the sun in January? If so… then a 7 day SUP adventure to Brazil with Wilderness SUP may be just what you’re looking for! Read on for more info…

Wilderness SUP is delighted to host some luxury, Brazilian 7 day SUP Adventure retreats throughout January 2014 in a really stunning, small Rough-LUXE boutique hotel secluded villa overlooking the Atlantic coast of Brazil and it’s stunning beaches and surf breaks for all levels.
Each morning and evening, to avoid the wind, we’ll explore the inland and coastal waters of Baia Formosa, which is a small fisherman’s village and is like taking a step into the past. With more than 300 days of sunshine per year Natal is known as the bride of the sun and temperatures have never dipped below 18 degrees in the last 100 years. Our trip here will combine both ocean and river SUP coupled with a visit to a manatee reserve where we can paddle with these magnificent animals. Also there are several great spots close by such as Barra de cunhau, Sagi, Barra de Camaratuba and the chic beach town of Pipa. In between, or after the SUP sessions we’ll squeeze in a daily SUP-focused yoga session on our shady terrace overlooking the coast whilst looking forward to a relaxed evening of really good food, drinks and a chat as the sun goes down.

This is an all inclusive trip, so from the moment you get on the plane you can switch off the brain and let us take care of everything else. We’ll have a core Wilderness SUP team on hand the whole time, plus Ernesto and his Pousada La Bonita www.pousadalabonita.com team to look after your every need… well, perhaps not every need!
From £1350 (that’s about $2175/ €1609) per person per week.

Travel 

Flights from the UK and Europe’s other main hub airports tend to be in the £550-£750 range per person, the main airlines are most major European carriers and TAM Airlines. TAP Portugal offers good connections with Brazil. From the USA it’s a flight straight down to Brazil with prices varying from whichever airport you are near. Some cheap deals though. From Australia flights tend to go via Los Angeles. We tend to browse both Skyscanner & Kayak to get the full picture as they seem to offer different deals from different airlines.
