Half-Day Boat Tour in Marapendi Lagoon from Rio de Janeiro

Boat Tour in Marapendi Lagoon from Rio de Janeiro

Embark on a family-friendly educational tour. This tour focus on bringing attention to environmental issues and preserving endangered species.

Starting with hotel pickup, we take you to the Marapendi Lagoon. We take a boat tour through the lagoon to find out more about the issues faced by the locals. We get to see the work of the biologists in charge of preserving the wild life in the lagoon. We get amazed by their efforts in saving the local animals. If we are lucky, we may even help delivering an alligator back to the lagoon.

After the boat tour, we go to the Reserva Beach or do water sports. Keep in mind that this is a rustic type of tour. The toilets are functional yet simple. There are no restaurants or shops around the area. It is a place to relax and enjoy an intimate contact with nature.

At the end, if you are hungry, the tour guide can suggest a nice place for lunch (not included). After lunch, we return to the hotel.
