Hi there, we use cookies to improve your experience on our website. You can update your settings by clicking the Privacy policy link at the bottom of the page. Details here. Ive read some nice things but also read a lot of bad things. I am planning to go there this spring, but would like to hear about your experiences there.
So if one of us tells you something we didn't like about the neighborhood, what do you consider your options to be? No, seriously. The place looks beautiful in pictures. But i've also read about the bad condition of the beaches and the boardwalk amongst other things. How good is a beach town, when the beach isnt so good.
Ponta Negra is not the only beach of Natal. There are almost hundred beaches close to the city and a bunch of lagoons. Ponta Negra is not that bad IMO. I had a house close to Genipabu and a Volkswagen with big tires I used to explore other places.
My wife still goes to Natal once in a while she was born there to visit her relatives. They felt comfortable there. It is when the rainy season starts on the north east. It can comes heavy short rain and a hot sun when there are no clouds.
Anyway the weather has been so crazy that we don't know what to expect. Happy travels silbley. Ponta Negra is nice but has faced some problems related to prostitution and infra-structure by the beach as the city has witnessed a certain crisis regarding its mayors amid corruption rumors.
