Is Fortaleza safe? Our personal experience after 2 weeks in Brazil

[@jscheurichIV]

Spent 3 years living in fortaleza. Never had any bad experiences, and people are super friendly. People often will walk across the street just to talk to you and ask how your day is.

[@joaoboscoth203]

I've lived in Fortaleza for over 30 years and I'm glad you had a good experience. I can't say the same, but I understand the good perception you had. the fact that we have electrical wires on the walls, bars on the doors and windows and we are afraid of walking alone at night in many places is what makes me want to leave here, but of course by taking the necessary precautions and going to places where there are a lot of people, the experience tends to be positive. Even though I worked for a few years in the region that appears in the video, I never bathed in this sea. We have beautiful other beach options in our state.

Yes Jo. I can see there is the city beach which is probably a little murky understandably, but a few kilometres along i'm sure you'll find the beautiful ones. Do u still wear a mask bro? ty

Thank you for showing Brazil!

[@BrazilUSAandBeyond]

I love Fortaleza! You have to be careful anywhere in the world! The people in Fortaleza are amazing in Ceara- Brazil!😀🇧🇷

[@TheBlueskyson]

Obrigada folks. I spent a month in Rio 2018. Never a problem, only friendly people and great food and music. I've just met a lady from Fortaleza, and travelling there next month to meet her. You need to use common sense and not wander around drunk or in isolated areas if you're a gringo. Similar strategy to any big city in the world. ty 4 vid.

Thanks for the video.

I'm from Brazil, and I agree with you guys 100%. It's disrespectful to "tour" in the favelas like you're in a zoo.

[@BrazilGe]

Fortaleza has a bad reputation. I've spent months there and never experienced, or even seen, a crime. The tourist zones are very safe and friendly. Don't let the fear mongering keep you from experiencing this great city.

[@luizbomfim2840]

Brazil is underestimated. There is a loop of misinformation that feeds back on itself, as those who have bad experiences shout out to everyone, while those who have good experiences remain silent. Regarding the pronunciation of Açai, the pronunciation is not "akai" its like "asai". And it is a very high-calorie but very healthy fruit due to its bioactive compounds and antioxidants. Just avoid putting candys in the recipe

Super safe in most places

[@el_Contra]

I would not say "super" safe... anywhere. When you think you are "super" safe, that is when you drop your guard and will become a victim.
