Itinerary

Your adventure begins at our shop, conveniently located at the entrance to São Rafael Beach, next to the main car park. Before heading to the water, you'll have a safe place on the beach to leave your belongings. Our guides will then provide a short safety briefing and explain the basics of kayaking, ensuring everyone feels comfortable before setting off. No previous experience is required. Once on the water, you'll paddle along the spectacular São Rafael coastline, exploring hidden sea caves, impressive limestone cliffs, and secluded beaches. Throughout the tour, your local guide will share fascinating stories about the area while ensuring everyone stays safe and enjoys the experience. Weather and sea conditions permitting, we'll stop at a secluded beach that is only accessible by sea. Here, you'll have time to relax, explore the beach, and enjoy a snorkeling session in the crystal-clear waters, where you can discover the local marine life. Snorkeling masks are provided. Your guide will accompany the group throughout the entire tour, and at the end of the experience, we'll paddle back to São Rafael Beach, finishing at the same location where we started.
