After the craziness of Universo Parallelo, my French friends and I decided to take it easy in Itacare. I had heard great things about Itacare. When we arrived it was however extremely busy and crowded, most places were booked up!
The ‘hippy, laid back’ vibe that was promised was not found. It was packed everywhere. We spent a day on what we thought was a quiet beach. It turned out to be full of people- not what we expected at all! Despite being disappointed by Itacare, we did find a really good vegetarian restaurant- ‘Restaurante Naturalmente’.
I had much higher expectations of Itacare than what I experienced. But again this could have been tainted by the fact we went at the height of the season. I was also only able to stay 2 nights. Staying in places of at least 3 nights is always a good idea.
This was my last stop in the North East of Brazil and I have to say that I completely fell in love with this region. It is completely different to anywhere I have been before. The people are what make this place so mesmerising.
