Activity itinerary

Prainhas do Pontal do Atalaia
  • 1h
As the times of day, currents, solar presence and various other elements vary, the tonality of the water can vary, oscillating between green and blue hues. However, there are two features that remain unchanged any day of the year: the tranquility and transparency of the waters in Prainhas. These qualities are similar to paradise destinations in the Caribbean, making them one of the most stunning beaches in Arraial do Cabo. In addition, the water temperature is extremely pleasant, being among the most inviting in the region.
Farol Beach
  • 1h
Standing out as a true jewel of Arraial do Cabo, Praia do Farol is one of the most stunning beaches in the entire Lagos Region and, without exaggeration, in all of Brazil. Its reputation gained notoriety when it was classified by the renowned INPE (National Institute for Space Research) as one of the most pristine beaches in the country, based on criteria such as the purity of the waters, the quality of the sand and the surrounding landscape. This fame quickly spread, transforming Praia do Farol into an unmissable destination for anyone visiting Arraial do Cabo.
Forno Beach
  • 1h
With approximately 500 meters in length, Praia do Forno reveals itself in two different faces. To the right is a lively end full of bars, food stalls, kayak rentals and a constant buzz, especially on weekends. However, just go a little further along the strip of sand until you reach its end to enjoy the almost deserted Praia do Forno, where there is a refuge for those seeking tranquility. In addition to being an attraction for diving lovers, this beach captivates snorkelers, providing sightings of numerous sea turtles. Interestingly, it also houses an oyster farm, adding even more charm to the place. The water temperature, although not the coldest in Arraial, makes the temptation to dive in the dazzling colors of the sea at Praia do Forno irresistible.
Crevice of Our Lady of Assumption
  • 20m
Boat trips in Arraial do Cabo provide truly extraordinary experiences, which justifies why nautical tourism is the preference of visitors. In addition to stops at paradisiacal beaches, such as Ilha do Farol, the boats make a trip along the coast, departing from Praia dos Anjos. During these tours, it is possible to capture photographs of true works of art carved by nature. One of these treasures is the Crevice of Our Lady, an opening between the rocks that houses an image of the saint in its center. That picture is certainly worth a thousand words, leaving viewers in awe of its unique and sacred presence.
Gruta Azul
  • 20m
The visit to Gruta Azul is one of the obligatory stops during the boat trip towards Praia do Farol. This unique rock formation is just one of the many natural wonders that can be seen along the route, which includes the stunning Cabo Frio Island. The entire route through the open sea is simply stunning, with an impressive palette of tones in the waters. The Blue Grotto is one of the breathtaking moments, where the waves break furiously against the imposing rocks, adding a spectacle of wild nature to the scenery.
Praia dos Anjos
  • 20m
The picturesque atmosphere of Praia dos Anjos enchants with its bucolic scene of boats, which throughout the day witness fishermen returning from the sea, full of fish to supply the local market. Although this beach is not the most suitable for swimming, it certainly stands out as one of the busiest and most relevant in the region.
