Thanks PeixeGato,

Yes it was Timbalada and also the gorgeous Babado Novo - I have uploaded some more pictures under the Natal link. It was a very good concert, unlike England the concert went right through the night, I finally left at 5.30am and it was def still going then! Top night.
Have you seen Timbalada before? They were great, but I think I liked Babado Novo better!

I had a great time and would def recommend going over to Natal to anyone else who is thinking of investing in the area.

What details do you want? All the sites I visited are in the pictures - Jacuma Beach Resort, Porto Dos Corais, Maracajau, Ma-Noa Parque. I also wanted to see the following but I didnt get the time to go south to Mar de Tabatinga, Pipa and Búzios - But I will next time.
PM if you like and I will answer any of your questions.

I have also just added a few more pictures, 'Barra do punaú' - it was very nice here.

Mark,

Nice photos.

I had to laugh when I looked at your Jacuma pics seeing Alex K in there doing his famous suit cigarette lighting trick.

Regards,
Rob.

Sorry, I guess I wanted more details on the properties/developments you looked at, if any. I guess that info would be posted in a different thread.

I saw Timbalada in Salvador during Carnival 2000. It was a short, but amazing show.

Thanks to our member GolfingWorld for this series for pictures that were taken last week.

Buzios is one of the best and busiest beaches in NE Brazil, 15km from Natal and the best surf beach in the area. I have included pics in both directions.
The same applies for Pipa.

GolfXXXX,

Are you just making that statement up or did you find it on someones site? (if so please link to it)

I have heard of Praia do Amor in Pipa (not the one you took a picture of) being voted one of the top ten beaches in the world, but never the busiest.

I have never heard anyone say much about the beach at Buzios.

Regarding your Pipa photos, this comes from the virtualtourist site:

"Be sure to experience Pipa at night- after 9:00p.m. Like many places in Brazil, it looks and feels different at night. During the daytime it can feel a bit deserted, but at night everyone comes out. There are many restaurants and bars in Pipa- you won't be wanting for a place to eat."

The page is here: Pipa Nightlife - Reviews, Tips, Photos - VirtualTourist.com

Is it "been there" or "not been there" my friend..I sense that you have never been to Brazil...if you had "been there" you'd know. If you want to continue to make a fool of yourself, please feel free, it gives me something to do whilst I am waiting for my investment properties to double in price!

GolfXXXX,

Whatever you are smoking, can I have some too.

You still haven't answered my questions:

1. Which pousada did you stay at in Pipa?
2. Where did you read the statement Buzios is "the best and busiest beach in NE Brazil"?

Here is another one, how can your investment double in price, when you insist you will only make "25% in 7 years"?

Oh and yes I have been there a lot of times, 6 to be exact, and not on all-inclusive charters like yourself ... which means I have actually traveled around, not just gone on a buggy ride down the beach divining occupancy rates with an old forked stick.
