quick trip to ilha grande on xmas + 1 or 2 days

by dsldsl Online Now Dec 23, 2008 at 1:25 PM

I'm traveling to rio to meet friends for NYE and have 2 or 3 days to myself before they arrive. I would like to go to Ilha Grande for a few days and explore, and have a few qs: - weather right now will suck and I shouldnt go or is OK and worth checking out anyway? - do i need to call around and book a reservation now, or just show up? im looking for hostel style cheap accommodation. are the options listed on the ilhagrande tourism website the way to go? - anyone have info on diving? i'd love to dive for a day if possible. - if i only have 1 or 2 days/nights on the island, what should i be sure to do? i know, personal choice but please share opinions... - THANK YOU THANK YOU! dan

    We are in rainy season. So I suggest you check out how is weather at Ilha Grande. Brazilians use to go to beachs and spots in holidays. So I suggest you book a reservation now. Ilha Grande may be crowded. Diving is OK in Ilha Grande and Angra dos Reis. There are no cars in Ilha Grande. http://www.ilhagrande.com.br/ viagensmaneiras.com/sistemas... Cassiovieggore
