With beautiful beaches, people, yachts etc it’s known as the Monaco of South America. Unfortunately, due to 60 knot winds, and a tender ride ashore, it was felt too dangerous for us to stop and we continued up the coast.
The next day was also a sea day, so we had plenty of time to enjoy the activities on board, including, the Formal Night for us:
the Pirate Night for Charlotte
and especially the Desert Extravaganza!

The following day we were supposed to stop at Paranagua, Brazil, but unfortunately the small town had flooded, so even if we did get ashore, there would be nowhere to go. Instead, last minute, the captain arranged for us to stop at Itajai (one of the leading economic ports in Brazil, not regularly on the cruise ship itinerary!). It was a nice town with plenty of market stalls:
and shops and supposedly some lovely beaches, which we didn’t get a chance to see.
