Begin your tour in the morning from the hotels of Ponte Negra and visit the Via Costeira. Passing through the urban beach district, pay a visit the Reis Magos (Three Kings) Fort. Finalized in 1614, the fortress was built to protect against French colonial interests in the region. The star-shaped military fortification has a perimeter of 820 feet (250 m) with 5 canon positions, allowing defenders to fire from at least 2 positions at once if an enemy attacked from a single direction.

Continuing onward, pass the neighborhoods of Santos Reis, Rocas, and Ribeira, areas where Natal began its growth, to the city center and the cathedral of Natal.

Next, visit an arts and crafts center and enjoy time to browse the handicrafts and pick up any items you like. Next, gain elevation and take in panoramic views from the Morro do Careca (the bald hill). This vista stretches from the outskirts of Natal all the way across to Pirangi beach, some 15 miles (24 km) away. You also get to see the largest Caju tree in the world and take a swim in calm waters before returning.
