A little bit of Brazil´s history
There is an interesting controversy about the history of Brazil. Officially it says this country was discovered by accident when, on April 22, 1500, a Portuguese expedition to India, led by Pedro Álvares Cabral, arrived in the south of Bahia, in the region where some years after Porto Seguro City was born. However some historians believe that, on January 26, 1500, Vicente Yáñez Pinzón already had set anchor in a bay which he named Cabo de Santa María de la Consolación, in the State of Pernambuco. In 1811, the area around this bay became a town and received a name of Cabo de Santo Agostinho. Although this big controversy everybody agree that Cabo de Santo Agostinho has some of the most beautiful and amazing beaches of Brazil. Calhetas, Gaibu, Paiva and Enseada dos Corais are some those famous beaches that offer to all their visitors an unforgettable and incomparable view. If you have any doubt about it go there. I promise you will never regret it.
