Our journey begins at 8 am, gathering near the Flávia Alessandra statue on the western side of Arraial do Cabo. With anticipation, we will set out to explore these remarkable locales!
The trail spans 4.6 kilometers (2.8 miles) and will initially guide us to Praia Grande, a beloved bay known for its stunning turquoise waters and pristine white sands, creating a captivating scene that's perfect for photography.
Subsequently, we will make our way to the fishermen's pier at the southern end of Praia Grande. This charming area, dotted with rustic sailor houses and boats, remains an untouched treasure away from the usual tourist paths.
Continuing our adventure, we will arrive at Bomba, recognized as one of the leading diving spots in the area. Our journey will also take us to Janela do Paraíso, an abandoned structure boasting windows that showcase breathtaking panoramic views of the Arraial do Cabo coastline.
