      What you can expect

      Get away from traditional tourism and explore an environmental reserve that is still within the city of Rio de Janeiro!

      We offer a full immersion in the nature of Rio de Janeiro's West Zone, combining a beach tour, contact with nature, adventure, stunning scenery, and local cuisine.

      During the experience, you'll paddle a stand-up paddleboard through the mangrove swamps of the nature reserve, relax on pristine beaches, and discover a little-known side of the city.

      What will we do?

      We will meet at the designated meeting point and head towards a more remote part of the city, passing along a large section of the Rio de Janeiro coastline en route.

      Upon arrival, we will set off on a stand-up paddleboard/paddleboard tour through the mangroves, exploring natural channels and observing the local flora. During the tour, we will take breaks for contemplation.

      On the return journey, you will also have the option to choose a beach to take a break, enjoy the scenery, and connect with nature and the sea.

      Then we will head to another location, where we will be able to spot local wildlife in their natural habitat, such as capybaras and alligators.

      The entire activity respects nature and the local ecosystem, posing no risk to any animals or to the participants. We always maintain a safe and responsible distance. We only observe the animals; there is no direct contact with them, and the safety of both parties is always our top priority.
