First, we head to Parque da Ribeira dos Caldeirões, one of Nordeste's biggest attractions. This natural park is full of endemic flora and serene spots, and even an iconic waterfall. If you are lucky, you might even be able to spot a Priolo, a bird species that is endemic to this area of the island.

After lunch, come take a stroll through this town and enjoy the relaxing setting.
