When the beach is calling your name, you might want to head down to Casa Caiada Beach, located 1.9 mi (3.1 km) from central Olinda. Catch the sunset by the shore at Praia de Rio Doce and Ilha da Amizade, located nearby.
Why not spend a lazy afternoon at Ilha da Amizade during your trip to Olinda? Make time to visit the monuments and cathedral while you're in the area.
