But now I'm in the northeast, not too close to maceio.
I am in Fortaleza, if you want to come to Brazil to warm places .. go to the northeast.
I think everywhere are a bit dangerous, just be careful.
Here also has many beaches, but I do not like the beach and not heat. then i do not like the northeast haha! But come visit Brazil :)
But talking about maceio, if you are looking for a quiet place, voce deve ir lá.
Clear waters, calm seas and warm. happy and welcoming people, good food, and from what I saw the cost of living is not as high.
you can come to Fortaleza, on the beach of the Future. it is very beautiful.
also has the Beach Park, the largest park with waterslide of latin america
Hi Niklas,
I am from California and spent a few months in Brazil last year including Maceio. Yes, Maceio is one of the most violent cities in Brazil, however, I had no problems at all. Maceiro is ok, but there are more fun places. Check out Pipa Beach, which is located between Natal and Recife. It is a tiny little town but lots of actions. There are many very nice beaches and you'll probably like it there a lot.
What crime is concerned you need to apply common sense and you will be ok. However, the fact that you are muscular, etc. doesn't matter at all. Remember, muggers there have guns and big *** knifes.
Have a great time in Brazil.
My country (Brazil) sucks. That's a fact. I have no clue why some of you from first world country think about coming in countries like Brazil or others bullsh*ts. Do you want a REALLY hot place to stay (bad choice!)? Go to Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, etc... But just FORGET about shi**y third world countries and you will enjoy your travel in PEACE and with RESPECTFUL people, for example...

"We are both 18, tall and muscular guys so I dont think no one would try to rob us"
What...? Do you think a robber would care about that if they are usually using guns?! lol, that sounds kinda funny for our situation, indeed.

EDIT:
Did I get downvoted for telling the truth? That was expected, since most brazilians are hypocrites too.

EDIT:
"Actually Im going to meet this girl there"... Sorry, I didn't notice that before. So you gotta need to take care of your travel and run away fast before some sh*t happens with you and your friend! :D
Maceió's beaches are the most beautiful, clean and quiet in Brazil. This is the good place to visit here in Brazil.
*Sorry my English, I'm Brazilian
Me and my friend are planning to go to a vacation to somewhere hot place... We are thinking about Maceio, Brazil. Actually Im going to meet this girl there and have some fun so its 60% sure we are going to Maceio... But ive heard its one of the most violent cities in Brazil, how is that?.. We live in Finland and here is alot of some weird sh#t too but yeah.. We are both 18, tall and muscular guys so I dont think no one would try to rob us or something but who knows... But how is overall Maceio?
