Since 2005, Iberostar has been proudly aligned with the Tamar Project who notifies area hotels of turtle hatching activity. Iberostar Selection Praia do Forte collects umbrellas, lounge chairs and maintains dim lighting to help turtles decipher artificial light versus moonlight.

Walk around the Pelourinho Streets in Salvador

Dotted with historic Portuguese architecture, shops and restaurants, stroll through the vibrant, cobblestoned streets of Pelourinho. Don’t miss a live capoeira (Brazil's oldest martial art) performance along the main square.

Amazon Rainforest

There are many ways to enjoy the legendary Amazon Rainforest. Take a flight to Manaus to visit the river tributaries where they merge at the Encontro das Aguas. Or enter the heart of the forest on a guided boat tour. Only 10 kilometers from the rainforest, you’ll find the jungle of Manaus teeming with wildlife such as manatees, jaguars, tapirs, lizards and river dolphins.
