ENGLISH: Porto de Galinhas is continuously elected the best beach in Brazil, and it is easy to see the reasons. It is an amazingly beautiful area, with warm and clear water, natural reefs and a very nice village. We spent a couple of days in Porto de Galinhas beach and we did snorkelling and scuba diving, all filmed in HD High Definition. The Brazilian state of Pernambuco, in the North-east of Brazil, is a paradise for scuba divers, as the water conditions are just about perfect. There are many ship wrecks as well, including in Porto de Galinhas and Recife, Pernambuco's capital. Recife is one of the 2014 Brazilian World Cup host cities.

PORTUGUÊS: Um dos primeiros videos do meu canal no Youtube foi em Porto de Galinhas, em 2006, e era bem despretencioso. Se chama O Ataque dos Peixinhos Coloridos e ja foi assistido umas 100 mil vezes. Agora eu resolvi voltar em Porto de Galinhas pela primeira vez com uma câmera de alta definicao (HD) e fazer uma pequena série de vídeos, dessa vez mais decente. Ficamos alguns dias em Porto de Galinhas e fizemos snorkelling e mergulho, na praia que foi eleita de novo a melhor do Brasil.

Sobre Porto de Galinhas na Wikipedia (Português):
Porto de Galinhas é uma conhecida praia do nordeste brasileiro, localizada no município de Ipojuca, no estado de Pernambuco. Sua fama se deve, principalmente, às belezas naturais: piscinas de águas claras e mornas formadas entre corais, estuários, mangues, areia branca e coqueirais. Inicialmente, a praia era chamada de Porto Rico, e a madeira de Pau Brasil era o principal produto comercializado. No auge da escravidão no Brasil, este porto era o principal ponto de comércio de escravos ilegais no nordeste brasileiro, muitas vezes os mesmos chegavam escondidos embaixo de engradados de galinhas d'angola. A chegada dos escravos ilegais ao porto costumava ser anunciada pela frase "tem galinha nova no porto!". Desta forma, a praia de Porto Rico ficou conhecida como Porto das "Galinhas".
Toda a região é muito frequentada por turistas, que admiram a beleza natural da região. Porto de Galinhas também é frequentada por surfistas, de diversas nacionalidades.
