If you’re looking for day-trip inspiration, we’ve got a couple of tips. Situated 50 miles away, Paranagua is worth getting in the car for. Among your first stops here ought to be Mercado Municipal do Cafe, Santuario Nossa Senhora do Rocio and Mel Island. The locals will also likely point you toward Ponta Grossa, 55 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, let it be Barao do Rio Branco Square. (But we’d also highly recommend Palladium Shopping Mall and Governor Manuel Ribas Park.)
