Fernando de Noronha Archipelago. A piece of paradise in Brazil. Original Work.

in #travel8 years ago (edited)

Fernando de Noronha island is a piece of paradise in the Northeast coast of Brazil. It was home for military bases and prison in the past. The island has pristine beaches and amazing ocean life. It is a well know spot for scuba diving and surfing. Population the is only around 2000 people and is controlled to avoid damaging the ecosystems.

I've been there in 2011 to photograph a wedding but had a chance to do a tour during a day. Here are some of my photos.


















Hope you like it.
