Sao Paulo Beaches, Brazil

From series “Dangerous and Treacherous Beaches That Can Be Lethal”
On the beaches of São Paulo, you have to be extremely careful and take all the safety precautions, which depend on the prohibited signs on the beach. The main danger to the recreation seekers are the piranhas. The at first glance quiet small fish are incredibly dangerous.

Sao Paulo Beaches, Brazil 2002 was one of the first tragic seasons in Sao Paulo. Alone on the beach Conceicao there were 38 cases of piranha attacks. The number of accidents on the Sao Paulos beaches is increasing every year. In December 2009, 74 people of Piranhas were injured. Fortunately, there was still a lethal exit to this day, which would be connected with the piranhas attacks in São Paulo. However, the bites of the dangerous predators often lead to the amputation of the body members, which is a single way to save the life of man.

The carnivorous piranhas living in the coastal waters are quite large. Usually, the length of the piranha body is at least 30 cm. The most dangerous periods are always the special prohibition signs on the beach. But many tourists do not pay attention to these prohibitions. The serene and beautiful beaches of São Paulo are incredibly dangerous. One should always keep in mind that the piranhas are very fast fish. Even if the beach seems to be quite safe, you must pay attention to the signs. Next - Chowpatty Beach

Top destination around Sao Paulo Beaches - Sao Paulo

Another interesting festival that takes place in the largest city in Brazil is the famous three-day event called Lollapalooza. In Sao Paulo, the festival takes place in springtime (in late March or in early April), and it always brings together thousands of fans of rock and pop music. You can listen to various genres of rock and metal here, as well as electronic music. The festival is attended by famous headliners, both foreigners and natives of Brazil (among them Sepultura, Metallica, Skrillex, Three Days Grace). The place where the huge music concert takes place is the massive Autodromo de Interlagos (or Autódromo José Carlos Pac). The festival has long attracted an established audience and is the largest musical event in the country.

Another musical event well-known internationally is Dekmantel São Paulo. It is traditionally held at the beginning of the second month of winter and is dedicated to electronic music; its various genres are presented here – from rave to ambient. The clubbers, visiting Playcentre at this time, will have only one thing to complain about, and that is that their legs are tired of dancing under the fiery beats of electronic music. It is also worth making mention of such a fest as Electric Daisy Carnival, which is held at the end of November in the same large-scale auto track of the Autodromo de Interlagos. As you can easily guess from the title, the festival is dedicated to electronic music – the likes of rock and metal, which are very fond of on the expanses of Brazil. In addition to the musical component, the fest offers you the opportunity to enjoy gorgeous art installations and theatrical shows.
