Sea Kayaking Day Trips and Multi-day Expeditions
Sea Kayaking in Paraty
It's easy to see why Brazil is fast becoming one of the most popular international sea kayaking destinations.
Renowned the world over for its vibrant Beach Culture and with the longest coastline in South America, Brazil is undoubtedly a paddler's paradise.
From its base just south of Rio de Janeiro on the country's most beautiful stretch of coastline, the Costa Verde (Green Coast), Paraty Explorer is pioneering day and multi-day guided sea kayaking tours in Brazil.
With deserted sandy beaches, tropical islands, Rainforest covered hills and traditional Caiçara fishing villages the Costa Verde has all the ingredients for an amazing sea kayaking experience!
(UK's Guardian newspaper 'Where's hot for 2009', click here).
On our 4 Day/ 3 Night Short Break trip we spend 3 days kayaking the warm waters of Brazil's only tropical fjord, across naturally protected bays, through mangroves with stops at islands and beaches before finishing up in the colonial town of Paraty, a UNESCO nominated World Heritage Site.
4 Day Trip Itinerary highlights include:
- The best beaches on Brazil's Green Coast
- Brazil's only tropical fjord with outstanding views from the 500m Sugarloaf Peak
- Paddling through mangrove teeming with wildlife
- The Caiçara culture of the local fishing communities
- Island hopping in the Bay of Paraty
The exact kayaking route taken will vary depending on local weather conditions. We paddle for approximately 2 to 4 hours per day, with plenty of time for relaxation and other activities like hiking, swimming, snorkelling and observing the local flora and fauna of the Atlantic Rainforest.
