On 15 March 1987, the prestigious American newspaper Washington Post published a list of the ten most beautiful beaches in the world. The selection criteria took into account above all the beauty and exoticism of the places. To the general astonishment of Brazilians, an unknown beach on the west coast of Ceará was at the top of the list and with a more than bizarre name: Jericoacoara. From that moment on, American and European adventurers followed by Brazilians arrived at this distant paradisiacal beach.
