Rio de Janeiro Sailboat Trip

We'll be waiting for you at the designated time, at the Marina da Glória, ready to set off on a fun sailing trip along the coast of Rio de Janeiro.

We will climb on board and, as we set sail, you will relax with a delicious glass of wine or a traditional caipirinha. After the toast, we will sail on the waters of Guanabara Bay, passing in front of Flamengo Beach and approaching the foot of the famous Sugar Loaf Mountain.

Near this mountain, we will find the forts of São José and São João, which had an important defensive role when the Portuguese dominated this area centuries ago. Of course, we will also contemplate the magnificent Christ the Redeemer statue from an exclusive perspective. Remember to bring your camera to capture this amazing scene forever!

And as we approach Niterói, at the eastern end of the bay, we will see the elegant Santa Cruz fortress appear before our eyes. We will drop anchor near it so you can enjoy a dip at the beautiful beach of Adam and Eve.

After swimming for 20 minutes, we will start our return journey. Moreover, as you enjoy the views, you treat your tastebuds to the delicious appetizers offered onboard, accompanied by a glass of wine, caipirinha, champagne, beer, juice, soda, or water.

After 3 hours, we'll conclude our sailboat ride at the starting pier. 

Sunset Sailboat Trip

If you choose this option, we'll set sail at the designated time from the pier of the Marina da Glória and admire the sunset over the coast of Urca and Botafogo, one of the most well-known areas in the coastline of Rio de Janeiro.

Plus, you'll enjoy this Brazilian sunset as you enjoy different snacks, and drinks on board, to choose between caipirinha, champagne, white wine, beer, juice, or water.

After 3 hours of sailing, we'll conclude this boat ride at the starting pier.
