Episode Synopsis
Pedro R gis Brazil It's true that the Paraíba coast is one of the most popular destinations for tourism in Brazil. There are many beautiful beaches along the coast of Paraíba, one of which is where we are now, the beach called Baía da Traição. Today, the warm sea and long stretch of sand guarantee a calm and paradisiacal setting, very different from what we would have found in 1645, when the war to expel the Dutch from Brazil began. What links this particular beach to the Dutch period, which ran from 1630 to 1654, is an illustrious character from this peaceful region of the northeastern coast, whose original peoples were, of course, indigenous.
