Resembling the planet Tatooine in the Star Wars saga, Natal, the capital of Rio Grande Do Norte, is a city built on sand. And everywhere you go, north or south, you’re surrounded by it. Founded in 1599 by the Portuguese, Natal became somewhat of a forgotten city for years. It suddenly reemerged during World War II as a military base and was known as the “Trampoline to Victory” because of its proximity to North Africa. Today, it is simply referred to as the “City of the Sun”, blessed with ten hours of endless sunshine a day.

The landscape throughout the city is dominated by beaches, quaint fishing villages and, of course, the omnipresent sand dunes. Most visitors explore these sights by buggy and head south of the city to the popular village of Punta Negra which has a 3km beach and perfect waves for surfing. More adventurous travelers venture north to Genipabu home of the largest sand dunes in the state. These 50 meter dunes lie between the calm beach and a fresh water lake, and there’s even lazy Dromedary Camels wondering around ready to give anyone a ride.

Getting around Natal

The bus is the best way to get around the city and beach towns. You may want to rent a car, since traffic is light and the roads are safe. But it could be more fun to rent a buggy and driver, for a quick way to the beaches and dunes outside of the city. Taxis can easily be hailed on the street, and you can always phone ahead for a cab as well.

For something a little different try sand boarding. And where better to indulge in such a unique sport than in the city built on sand. Avid sand boarders hit the dunes at the south end of Genipabu beach for some of the best sand in the state.
