Overview
Our tour begins in Fortaleza. From there, we will ascend a hill through the Fortaleza - Galheta trail, which will lead us to our destination: the Dólmen da Oração. The difficulty is moderate. There, you will discover a timeless place. An astronomical observatory made of huge monoliths. You will meet the "Pedra Virada," the Central Menhir, and many other formations.
Finally, you will be able to contemplate the ocean from the altar of the Dólmen da Oração. While you observe everything around you, I will tell you a little about the history of the island's ancestors. Before leaving the monoliths, you will enjoy a 360-degree view from the Ballena viewpoint: you will see the main beaches of the east of the island, the lagoon, the Joaquina dunes, Xavier Island, Campeche Island, and much more.
In addition, you will have the option of savoring the best of the region's typical cuisine in one of the restaurants on the banks of the Barra da Lagoa canal.
