Hotels in Northeast of Brazil, Brazil

Northeast Brazil stretches from Bahia to Maranhão, with a tropical climate that stays hot year-round-think 80°F (27°C) on average. It's famous for its colonial cities like Salvador, where you can hear the drum-heavy axé music born from Afro-Brazilian roots, and for pristine beaches like Porto de Galinhas. While sunny winters (June-August) are perfect for kitesurfing in the strong winds of Jericoacoara, the wetter summer months (December-February) bring cheaper stays and the chance to explore Olinda's 16th-century churches without the crowds.
