We'd recommend booking a Santa Cruz holiday for a minimum of 5 days.

You might even be able to make time for one or two day trips outside of Santa Cruz.

Well known for its coastal beaches, hiking and fishing, a Santa Cruz holiday offers something for everyone. Be sure to visit major sights like Palmeiras Beach and Santo da Serra Market, and consider renting a set of wheels for day trips to experience even more.
