The last light slides across Ponta Preta and the Atlantic pushes a cool breath up the sand as your private glamping tent catches the horizon. Inside, low light, designer linens and a bottle of wine set the tone; outside, the beach narrows into a black silhouette and the surf dares you to step out and watch the sunset together.
