Fernando de Noronha is an archipelago of
20 islands in the Atlantic Ocean, about 500 km off the Brazilian coast. It
is named after the Portuguese merchant Fernão de Loronha.
Did you know that this Brazilian hidden treasure allows
to accommodate only 420 tourists at a given time slot? Being a small island
with limited water resources and a fragile ecosystem, there is a maximum number
of visitors allowed.
The archipelago is a World Heritage Site since
2001, because of the importance of its environment.
