are nice Places to make Excursions

The city beaches of Olinda are polluted, and not recommended for swimming. However, there are many excellent beaches north of Olinda.

The Beaches North of Olinda

You've got to get out of town for a fine, clean beach. Head north to Janga beach (eight km) or at least Rio Doce (six km), and beyond to Praia da Nossa Senhora do Ó (12 km), Praia de Pau Amarelo (14 km), Praia da Conceição (17 km) and Praia da Maria Farinha (23 km). The road goes along close to the beach, but don't be deterred by the ugly development beside the road: the beaches are generally undisturbed except for barracas and crowds on weekends. Enjoy the local siri (small crab) and caranguejo (big crab) at the barracas. There are local buses to these beaches from Praça do Carmo.

All these beaches are not far, convenient of Olinda, where the Hotel Pousada Peter is located. Already in the neighbourhood there is the city Paulista with the beaches "Enseadinha", "Janga", "Pau Amarelo", "Nossa Senhora do Ó", as well as the beaches Conceição" and "Maria Farinha".
