Cassino Beach & Lagoa Mirim: Private Dune Buggy & Sundowner

Cassino is home to one of the world's longest uninterrupted beaches — 212 km of wild Atlantic shore. A private dune buggy convoy sweeps you along the surf line and into the vast dune fields bordering Lagoa Mirim for a champagne sundowner.

What to expect

Your convoy of custom open-top buggies launches from Cassino beach and tears south along the waterline where capybaras amble at the tide's edge and frigate birds wheel overhead. The buggies climb into the rolling dune fields that border Lagoa Mirim — Brazil's second-largest lake — where flamingo flocks wade in the shallows at dusk. Your private team has already set up a low table with chilled champagne, smoked fish blinis, and fresh fruit on a dune crest as the sun melts into the lake. A short drive returns you to port in time for all-aboard.
