We spent two nights at anchor near Morro de Sao Paulo. The only
downside to the anchorage is that there is a stream of tourist boats that pass
quite close by, but the location is beautiful and the town of Sao Paolo is worth
a visit. It is only accessible by boat and so it has tiled streets and
porters that are continually moving people’s luggage around in
wheelbarrows. It is touristy but in a quaint way. The beaches are
fringed by reefs that block the waves and create warm pools of water for
swimming.
Sao Paulo also has a cliff with a land slide of supposedly therapeutic
mud. I am not convinced of the therapeutic properties but everybody got
covered in mud just in case it made them look 20 years younger. There was
a Brazilian babe there who was slapping on the mud and Andrea reckoned she was
really an old crone being kept young by the mud.
