Ah, the beach at Cabo de São Roque. It's so calm and refined, it's practically a spa for your soul. Fun fact: it's also the closest point in South America to Africa. So you can soak up the tranquility while pretending you're on a far-off exotic adventure. Legend has it that this was the first spot where the Portuguese fleet of Pedro Álvares Cabral dropped anchor. And if you're looking for a little natural wonder, check out the two "Gameleira" trees that have been fused together by the mighty winds. It's like something out of a fairy tale, but without the evil witches or talking animals. All in all, if you're in the mood for some serious relaxation and a touch of history, Cabo de São Roque is definitely worth a visit. Just don't forget your sunscreen!
