Gilligan would've been pround to wash up on this particular Island!! Ilha Grande, or The Grand Island is amazing!!
Probably made all the better because of our stay with Jorge! This man is a legend. His casa was my casa. The room we had was unparralled, with a fridge, sink, mezanine double bed, no less than 3 couches, tables and chairs. It had it all! Best of all was the food. Breakfasts were a feast of fresh cakes, bread, cereals, fresh coffee, fruit, etc... and for just 4 pounds he cooked the most plentiful Brazilian dinners - not too be missed!!
Besides rest and sleep we did get time to see the many sights of the Island, including Lopes-Mendes beach (white sand, blue waters, great waves), waterfalls and the Blue Lagoon where we snorkled with the fishes and sea turtles. One of the best places we have been on our entire trip and met some great people there as well.
