And you will stop for diving at 03 different points: A first, the Forno Beach, where you can dive around the vessel.
Forno Beach is one of the main postcards of Arraial do Cabo! The color of the water in the cove and the strip of white sand surrounded by lush vegetation form a backdrop worthy of several photos.
Next stop is at Farol Island, considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Brazil. It’s hard not to be dazzled by the tone of the water, very similar to the Caribbean, and the almost untouched landscape of the place. This is the only beach in Arraial do Cabo that can only be accessed by boat.
Next to Farol Island, but in the mainland area, are two small beaches known as Prainhas do Pontal do Atalaia. The two unite at low tide and form a portion of sand that leaves tourists in love with the landscape. In this last stop will be able to go to the beach and take a sun bath and swim.
