Why Visit Brazil in November
November is the tail-end of the spring season in Brazil, ideal for beach activities, hikes, and sightseeing tours. Below are a few more reasons to visit Brazil in November.
- Better rates: Brazil is friendly to the pocket if you are traveling the country in November. Accommodation and commuting costs are significantly lower, and you can get better deals on tour packages. Make the best of this time to find bargain tours to Manaus, Salvador, or Recife.

Where to go and what to do
Take in the grandeur of Brazil as you indulge in the natural wonders the country has to offer. In the southern coastal state of Minas Gerais, witness the magnificence of the sheltered underground cavity of Gruta de Maquine — the oldest cave in Brazil. If time is on your side, you can explore Serra Geral National Park, famous for its breathtaking canyons, or visit the Iguazu National Park to see its iconic waterfalls. In the north, try hiking the Pedra de Gavea, overlooking iconic Brazilian beaches. The route to the top is strenuous but a breathtaking bird’s eye view of Rio de Janeiro is a guarantee from its summit.
November is also a great beach month, so you might want to check out some of the country’s finest — try the famed Copacabana near Rio de Janeiro for water activities and amenities, Praia do Espelho in Bahia for a quieter, more remote beach experience or Praia do Sancho in Fernando de Noronha for a stunning nature spot. Don’t forget to try some seafood too!
What to bring
Rain is always a possibility in November in Brazil. So pack a waterproof jacket or poncho to gear up for the sporadic pours. The humid weather also creates stagnant pools for mosquitoes and bugs to breed, so pack strong insect repellent to prevent itchy bites and mosquito-borne ailments.
The warm temperatures in November make it a great time to explore Brazil’s beaches, national parks, cultural centers, and city sights.
