Full description
Discover some of the picturesque beaches on the second-largest island of Angra, the charming Ilha da Gipóia. Hop in a shared speedboat in a group of no more than 18 people, and enjoy more time to swim, snorkel, and soak up the scenery.
Set off on your approximately 5-hour tour at 11:30 AM after meeting your guide at the meeting point. Make your way first to Angra's picture-perfect Ilhas Botinas, two small islands that form a natural aquarium. Put on your included snorkel and get in the water to see the famous Sergeant's fish.
Next, head to Praia da Fazenda, a calm beach good for a short walk and a gentle swim. From there, move on to Praia de Jurubaíba, also known as Dentista Beach. Upon arrival, be enchanted by this white sand beach and the beautiful emerald green sea. As it is very sheltered, it is a meeting point for many motorboats, from tourists to Brazilian celebrities. Enjoy time to take another short walk, beautiful photos, and swim.
Then, stop at Praia do Vitorino for lunch at Canto das Canoas restaurant (not included). Relax on the beach for a moment after your meal before moving on to Praia da Piedade, famous for having hosted the first Ilha de Caras. Admire the bucolic look and beautiful nature that surrounds this small beach's strip of sand and shallow sea on both sides. Finally, return back to Angra dos Reis.
