São Luis Travel Guide
Brazil
São Luís is a large Brazilian city with a population of 1,108,975, located on the country’s north-eastern Atlantic coast. Its position close to the Equator gives it a hot, tropical climate throughout the year.
Most air travellers arrive via Marechal Cunha Machado International Airport (SLZ), the city’s listed airport. There are no named notable beaches within 40 kilometres, so beach trips require planning beyond the immediate area.
