Explore Paraty's stunning archipelago on a traditional schooner tour visiting four pristine beaches and islands over 5 hours, with opportunities for snorkeling in crystalline waters teeming with tropical fish. This classic coastal experience showcases the region's natural beauty and peaceful island culture.
Paraty has 65 islands and hundreds of beaches of rare beauty, surrounded by lush vegetation that makes it a peaceful and unforgettable place. The most traditional Passeio de Paraty, Passeio de Escuna (saveiro), includes four stops (two beaches and two islands), each lasting approximately 40 minutes, one of which is for an optional lunch (à la carte) on board.
At these stops it is possible to do free diving with mask and snorkel, taking advantage of the crystal clear water of this region. One of the most requested stops by our tourists is the famous Comprida island. This island is also known as the Natural Aquarium of Paraty, due to the huge amount of fish that surround the boat and the people who dive in the sea during the tour.
Our vessels are accredited with total comfort and safety and approved by the captaincy of the ports and have an excellent infrastructure so that your tour is even more comfortable and unforgettable.
