First day on the beach today. Praia Joaquina on the east coast.

It was hot and sunny with a cooling sea breeze.

A good surf was running and I managed to get dumped, scraping a decent chunk of skin off the top of my head in the process.

The beach was very crowded with parasols and chairs renting for R$10 each per day. We haggled and got a set for only two hours for R$10.

On the way back we stopped at Barra da Lagoa before returning in heavy traffic via the northern route.
