Paulo Afonso Falls
Paulo Afonso, Brazil
Waterfalls on the São Francisco River in Alagoas and Bahia, Brazil. It sits on the northeast coast, which is warm and sunny almost year-round.
Why visit: Iguaçu is wider than Victoria and taller than Niagara — 275 separate falls in rainforest, and among the great sights anywhere.
- ›See Iguaçu from both the Brazilian and Argentine sides — they are entirely different views
- ›Take the boat under the falls and expect to be soaked
- ›Go at opening before the coach parties
- ›Bag your camera; the spray reaches everywhere
