Brazil Kayaking the Costa Verde — VIEW TRIP DETAILS

A Lodge–Based Kayak Journey of Discovery Into Brazil’s Atlantic Rainforest

We’ve paddled all over the world, and “perfect” is not a word we use lightly, but west of Rio de Janeiro on Brazil’s southern coast is the Costa Verde, an area steeped in history and rich with wildlife that is very nearly perfect for sea kayaking. The “Green Coast” includes the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Paraty and two ecological reserves that hold some of the world’s last intact Atlantic Rainforest. Our paddling trip features Saco de Mamanguá, Brazil’s tropical fjord, and a coastline stretch dotted with tiny villages, exquisite beaches, and waterfall swimming holes. With accommodations at comfortable eco-lodges and guesthouses, this boat-supported journey blends comfort with a truly unique kayak travel experience.

• Enjoy a special insider tour of vibrant Rio de Janeiro, one of the world’s great cities and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site?;

• Explore the Atlantic Rainforest, the Mata Atlântica, and observe first-hand the biodiversity and endemic species of this threatened tropical forest ecosystem;

• Experience for yourself this magical corner of Brazil, a place where nature, fun, and music are never far apart.
