Security :

Anchoring in Jacare is pretty safe, but make sure to use sufficient chain ( min. 20 m) as the tidal current could foul your anchor. Apart from that, don’t leave your boat open when not attended and pull in your dinghy, and especially the outboard, at night. F.y.i., this is a MUST e.g. in the Caribbean where some boaters steal more than the locals.

As all over the world in places with large social differences, avoid showing-off with jewelry, expensive watches etc.. while walking the streets and don’t go near to badly lit places or shanty towns at night and during daytime.

Unless you have to fulfil some official business (authorities, travel checks banking a.o.) where passports have to be produced, leave all official documents in a safe place on your boat. Brazilian police don’t require foreigners to carry original I.D. papers, so take a Xerox copy with you.

Avoid to take wallets in your back pocket ; just stuff some money and 1 or 2 Credit Cards in a tight jeans’pocket.

NE Brazil ,  is generally speaking pretty safe, although petty crimes such as pickpocking, stealing cellphones etc. are pretty common.
