Description

Experience a unique and unforgettable adventure exploring the natural paradises of Angra dos Reis and Ilha Grande, two of the most fascinating and sought-after destinations in Brazil. Located on the stunning Costa Verde, one of Brazil's most privileged coastal regions, this adventure offers the perfect blend of comfort, discovery, and breathtaking nature. Get ready to be amazed by landscapes that take your breath away, crystal-clear waters, and an incomparable marine life—all in one single tour. And the best part: you’ll be able to enjoy every moment without worries, as transportation, an expert guide, and a delicious lunch are included. The tour begins with a comfortable boat ride that takes you to some of the most beautiful islands and beaches in the region. The first stop is the stunning Lagoa Azul (Blue Lagoon), a true hidden paradise with its transparent waters that invite a refreshing swim. Lagoa Azul is known for its tranquility and mesmerizing colors, which range from shades of blue to green, providing the ideal environment to relax, swim, and marvel at the local marine life. While exploring the lagoon, you'll be able to observe colorful schools of fish and even vibrant corals that make the place even more special. Next, the journey takes you to Lagoa Verde (Green Lagoon), another breathtaking natural setting on Ilha Grande. The waters here are equally inviting, with an emerald green hue reflecting the surrounding vegetation, creating a spectacular view. This is the perfect moment to relax and enjoy the calm waters. If you enjoy diving, Lagoa Verde offers an excellent opportunity to explore the underwater wonders, with impressive visibility and abundant marine life. The local guides will accompany you throughout the visit, sharing insights about the history and biodiversity of the region. After visiting the lagoons, the tour continues to the peaceful beaches of Cataguases and Freguesia de Santana. Cataguases is a small island surrounded by crystal-clear waters, famous for its natural beauty and tranquility. Its white sand beaches and calm waters make it the perfect spot for a relaxing stroll along the shore. Freguesia de Santana, on the other hand, is an even more secluded beach, ideal for those seeking a more peaceful and immersive environment. You can walk along the sand, relax under the shade of native trees, and enjoy the fresh ocean breeze. To conclude this enchanting day, the tour arrives at the charming Japariz beach, where a delicious lunch at a local restaurant is the perfect break. With a view of the sea and surrounding tropical vegetation, this is the ideal time to savor fresh dishes made with local ingredients that reflect the flavors of the traditional cuisine of the region. The lunch will be a true immersion into the local gastronomy, featuring fresh seafood, fish, and other typical dishes.
