Located in the north shore of the island Buracona is the place where you'll find the fabulous natural pool of the photo bellow. Although only a few kilometers away from our previous stop Palmeira you might take a while to get there - the road is bumpy so drive slow okay :)
Besides the pool Buracona also presents its visitors with a fantastic landscape. Simply turn your back to the pool and you'll be able to admire the notorious contrast between its ocean blue tones and the red ones of the desert behind it.
Dominating the desert landscape is the highest mountain of the island. With its 405 meters of high, Monte Vermelho (in English, Red Mountain) do complete the beautiful landscape.
Hided close to the pool, deep in one of the caves nearby, is what the locals call Olho Azul (in English, the Blue Eye) - a beautiful light effect one can admire when the sunlight hits the ocean waters in the bottom of the cave (about 25 meters bellow surface) reflecting up its magnificent colors.
Before we follow to the Desert a serious warning: do stay away from the edge of the pool - as you can see above it is naturally filled with ocean water so be cautious ;)
Stumble It!
