Description
On Boa Vista, locals call the swordsman conch "Búzio." Fishermen traditionally catch it from the sea, as its meat is considered a true delicacy here. Unfortunately, many of the beautiful shells break when opened – but some remain intact, becoming unique little treasures of the island.
You can take these cases home as a very special souvenir: a piece of true island feeling, straight from the beach of Porto Ferreira.
Join us on our exciting eastern tour and discover the Búzios beach for yourself – or simply pick out an original souvenir from Boa Vista with us.
This way, you will not only take home a souvenir, but also a piece of island history and a memory of your time on Boa Vista.
German customs permits the transport of up to three shells of the fencing conch (Strombus gigas) per person – without any additional documents, as long as they are intended for personal use only.
