• Prainha Beach - We’ll embark on a scenic drive along Rio’s western coastline, traversing lesser-known beaches such as São Conrado, Barra, Reserva, Recreio, and Macumba. Our initial destination is Prainha, a hidden gem of a beach renowned for its surfing. As a conservation area, Prainha is encircled by lush mountains, and we’ll engage in a 1.5-hour trek through the tropical forest to reach the stunning Caeté Belvedere, perched 253 meters (830 feet) above sea level.

Following our trek, a brief 5-minute journey will bring us to Grumari Beach, another pristine and preserved stretch of sand. At Grumari, you’ll have ample time (around 3 hours) to bask in the natural splendor of a beach nestled within a tropical forest, complete with verdant surroundings, crystal-clear waters, and soft white sands. You can swim, sunbathe, relax, and immerse yourself in one of Rio’s most exquisite natural beaches.

Rio de Janeiro is celebrated for its stunning beaches, and this excursion offers you access to the finest. You’ll explore Rio’s most pristine and untouched shores: Prainha and Grumari, often regarded as wild beaches.

(Both Prainha and Grumari are nature reserves, safeguarded territories with no residential development, offering pure, unadulterated nature.)

Our journey explores the less disturbed Western region of Rio de Janeiro, abundant with natural beauty and secluded coastlines. The itinerary includes a coastal trip covering five distinct beaches (São Conrado, Barra, Reserva, Recreio, and Macumba). Our first break is at Prainha, a quaint, protected beach known as Rio’s surfing hub, where we embark on a 1.5-hour hike to the Caeté Summit (253m=830ft) offering panoramic views of the coast and Rio’s other peaks. Prainha is followed by a brief 5-minute drive to our final destination, Grumari, where we relax on the beach for approximately 3 hours. Reserved as well, Grumari is a tropical paradise with its pristine, white sandy beaches, verdant mountains, and clear waters (remember to bring a towel and swimsuit).
