7 days
in Patos de Minas

A 7-day plan that gets the best out of Patos de Minas without burning out by day four. Skip a day if you need to — the trip is yours.

  1. Day 1

    Arrive and acclimatise

    Land in Patos de Minas, drop bags at your Booking.com property and don't try to do too much. Walk the closest neighbourhood, find a café, eat somewhere local and call it early. Day-one jet lag is undefeated.

  2. Day 2

    The classic Patos de Minas day

    Lean into what Patos de Minas is famous for — a slow morning on the sand, long lunch, swim before the heat drops.

  3. Day 3

    Go a bit deeper

    Pick a corner of Patos de Minas you haven't seen yet. Patos de Minas also leans into nature — use today to mix it up.

  4. Day 4

    Day trip or slow day

    Either take a guided day trip or stay put and live like a local — pool, market, late lunch, repeat.

  5. Day 5

    Best meal, best view

    Book the best dinner you can afford tonight. Build the day around it — light morning, golden-hour walk, dinner, drinks somewhere with a view.

  6. Day 6

    The one extra thing

    Every traveller has the thing they almost skipped and ended up loving. In Patos de Minas it might be a boat trip, a hidden cove or a hike along the coast.

  7. Day 7

    Slow morning, easy fly-out

    Last coffee, last walk, last meal. Leave time to get to the airport without rushing — the lasting memory of Patos de Minas should be the one before the queue, not in it.
