Visit Olinda in Brazil

Brazil

Olinda is my favorite city in Brazil. I was captivated by its colorful beauty and its slow, peaceful pace within seconds of arriving. I often say that one day I will buy a house in Olinda. In the meantime, I return to spend a few days there every time I go to Recife to slow down and be dazzled by its beauty. If you want to visit Olinda, here is some information to ensure a successful stay.

Visit Olinda Brazil :

  1. Explore the historic center
  2. Visit its churches
  3. Buy local souvenirs
  4. Enjoy a drink in a bar
  5. Relax at the beach
  6. Finish the evening at Alto do Sé

Olinda in a nutshell

The Portuguese founded this charming city in 1535, perched on a hill overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, although indigenous tribes had long occupied its territory. It was the entry point for slaves forced to travel from Africa, whose fate ended in one of the plantations in the Pernambuco region in northeastern Brazil.

Olinda, the capital of the region, was burned by the Dutch nearly a century later, but was rebuilt toward the end of the 17th century.

Today, it is an extremely well-preserved colonial city known for its lively carnival and its beauty, which tourists come to admire, fully aware that the city has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1982.

Visit Olinda: 6 must-do

Even though I could spend weeks enjoying the laid-back lifestyle of Olinda, Brazil, it’s a city you can easily explore in a day.

Explore the historic center

Steep cobblestone streets and colorful facades are the essence of Olinda. To discover the city, don’t try to navigate with Google Maps, but wander at your leisure.

Visit its churches

Olinda has nearly 22 churches. I recommend visiting the Catedral da Sé for its terrace, which offers an incredible view of the city. The Mosteiro do São Bento is another must-see

Enjoy a drink in a bar

Drinking a cold beer while listening to Brazilians laughing loudly or local artists playing music is an activity you can do throughout the country, and Olinda is no exception!

Visitar Olinda

Relax at the beach

Olinda has several beaches where you can soak up the sun and gaze at the ocean. Here is a short list: Praia dos Milagres, Praia da Olinda, Praia do Farol and Praia da Casa Caiada.

Finish the evening at Alto da Sé

On the main hill overlooking the city, with a view of Recife in the distance, many food stalls are present from late afternoon. It’s the perfect opportunity to enjoy tapioca with coconut and cheese, or a Romeu e Julieta while surrounded by Brazilians and tourists.

Visitar Olinda

ALSO : Visit Recife

Olinda is a beautiful city perfect for slow travel, but you’ll quickly explore it. You can spend a weekend there and combine your visit with a trip to Recife, the actual capital of the state.

Bustling city center and very long beach to relax, the city is perfect for a short stay between history, culture, and chill.

How to get to Olinda?

Whether you’re coming from Natal, Salvador, João Pessoa, or anywhere else in Brazil, chances are you’ll arrive in Recife by plane or bus.

How to get to Olinda from Recife?

By bus

Several buses connect Recife to Olinda and take you there in 30 minutes. Ask locals for the bus stops because Google Maps is not very reliable.

By taxi

From the airport or the bus station, you can take a taxi to Olinda.

By Uber

You have the option of taking a motorcycle or car to get to Olinda from Recife.

How to get around in Olinda?

Of course, you can take an Uber or a taxi, but the tourist center is quite small, so you can easily walk everywhere.

Just for you to know: numerous streets are very steep, so if you have knees or back problems or just a bit of vertigo, it can be quite challenging. Take your time or look for an alternative route to avoid these streets.

When to visit Olinda?

The weather is beautiful year-round in Olinda. From May to August, rains can be quite frequent and intense, so it’s best to avoid that period.

Is it safe to visit Olinda?

As in any part of Brazil, there is no such thing as zero risk. However, since the city is smaller, the risk is lower.

That being said, avoid walking at night and exposing valuables or money to everyone’s eyes.

  • 💦HOW TO USE WATER RESPONSIBLY WHILE TRAVELING? As travelers, we have a huge responsibility for environmental protection. The best would be to stop traveling, but we all know it is not a realistic option😅 So instead, we really need to do our best and limit our impact. In many countries of the world, water scarcity is already a reality. It is quite scary. It is time to really do our best: 🚿Take Shorter Showers: This one is quite easy. Besides short showers, you can also turn off the tap while brushing your teeth. 💧Mindful Rinsing: When washing dishes or clothes while traveling, use a basin or sink filled with water rather than letting the tap run continuously. 🚰Choose Eco-Friendly Accommodations: Stay at accommodations committed to water conservation practices, such as using low-flow faucets and toilets. 💧Support Local Initiatives: Participate in local water conservation efforts or support businesses that prioritize sustainable water usage. 🌊Replenish, Don't Waste: Be mindful of water scarcity in the regions you visit, and only use what you need, whether it's for drinking, bathing, or washing. What are you already doing to reduce your water consumption? #responsibletourism #conscioustourism #sustainabletourism #ecofriendlytourism #responsibletravel #conscioustravel #sustainabletravel #ecofriendlytravel #mindfultraveler #travelandwork #workandtravel #digitalnomadtips

Nevertheless, it is not a path of roses🌹 Many times, you have to face some unexpected challenges that can be a threat to your work. I share with you 3 of them: ⚖️Work-Life Balance: Finding the balance between work and fun can be tricky when you don’t have a real office. You can feel guilt  if you spend time outside or can be unable to leave your desk because you would feel guilty to enjoy your destination. ➡️Set boundaries, create a designated workspace, and schedule regular breaks to avoid burnout and maintain productivity. 💻Connectivity Issues: As a digital nomad, reliable internet access is crucial for staying connected with clients, colleagues, and loved ones. ➡️ Research internet options in advance, invest in portable Wi-Fi devices and have backup plans in place for when connectivity issues arise. 😔Loneliness and Isolation: While traveling solo can be empowering, it can also lead to feelings of loneliness and isolation. If you are not happy with your personal life, it will be more complicated to be good at your work. ➡️ Combat loneliness by joining digital nomad communities, attending co-working events, and fostering relationships withlocals and fellow travelers.

  • 👩🏾‍💻ARE YOU THINKING OF BECOMING A DIGITAL NOMAD? Working and traveling at the same time is a dream for many of us, and I can assure you that it is an amazing lifestyle✨️ However, it is not for everyone. Check if you have these 4 essential qualities to embark on the digital nomad journey 🌐 ✅️Discipline. This one is a huge one. When you travel, you want to know everything about the destination where you are. You want to visit sites and spend time with the people you meet on the way. But, if you need to work 30 – 40 hours a week, you won’t be able to do it. So, you will need to be disciplined enough to avoid distraction and put yourself at work. ✅️Flexibility. Bad things happen when you travel. Your bus can be canceled, or your Wi-Fi can be down. It means you will need to change your plans, and it can affect your work. So, you need to be flexible and find a way to make things work. ✅️Quick-learning. While traveling, you need to learn many things: languages, how to get the bus, where to buy a sim card… Everything is new to you, but at the same time, you don’t have many months to learn how your new place works.  ✅️Ability to market yourself. It is true for digital nomads but also for any freelancer. You need to know how to sell your services and how to build a good online presence to get regular clients. How many of these skills do you have?💼 #digitalnomadlife #digitalnomadtips #digitalnomadgirls #digitalnomadwomen

  • ✨️NOVEMBER RECAP✨️ It has been a tough month. Many health issues prevented me from enjoying my time and focusing on my work. But I had no other choice than to deal with it. From a thwarted holiday plan in Huatulco to navigating medical challenges in Oaxaca, it was a journey of resilience and self-care. But today, it is December, and I am perfectly fine, and ready to enjoy Oaxaca and make the most of my last month here. Here are some highlights of this month: As a digital nomad: 👩🏾‍💻I started to diversify my income. Let’s see if I actually see results in 6 months. 👩🏾‍💻I changed my routine again to adapt it better to my life in Oaxaca. Adapting your routine when necessary is key if you are a remote worker. On a personnel level: 👩🏾 As much as I adore the digital nomad lifestyle, the adventurer in me is itching for more! So I plan to travel differently in 2024, a blend of routine to get my work done and not lose my sanity, and adventure to let space to the crazy Audrey. 👩🏾I am having the best time enjoying the Oaxacan cuisine. 👩🏾I am really enjoying having friends in Oaxaca and sharing great moments.

Being a digital nomad in Olinda

Honestly, Olinda is a perfect city for a tourist stay. For working there, since the city is small, you will quickly explore it, and it may be more challenging to meet people and even more so to meet other remote workers.

Responsible travel in Olinda

Wherever you are in Brazil, it’s important to travel responsibly to protect the planet and improve the living conditions of the locals.

There are many actions you can take during your travels. Here is a very short list:

  1. Avoid very expensive Airbnbs that disrupt the local market and prevent locals from finding proper accommodation.
  2. Bring a reusable container to avoid unnecessary plastic consumption when eating on the street.
  3. Apply eco-friendly sunscreen when swimming.
  4. Opt for walking to explore the city instead of taking taxis or Ubers.
  5. Learn about the social, economic, and environmental context of your destination to better understand the locals’ situation.

 

If you visit Olinda, you will discover a charming city to enjoy a colorful excursion or a peaceful stay to recharge your batteries.

If you think this article can help other travelers discover this destination, share it on Pinterest!
