Paraty Schooner & Snorkeling Cruise from Abraão

Sail a classic Brazilian schooner from Ilha Grande toward the colonial gem of Paraty, anchoring at jewel-coloured bays for snorkelling, swimming, and a freshly prepared seafood lunch on deck. A bucket-list sail through one of the world's most dramatic coastlines.

What to expect

Step aboard a beautifully maintained wooden schooner as it motors out of the bay before the sails unfurl along the Costa Verde (Green Coast). The first stop is a pristine snorkel reef teeming with marine life; the second is a white-sand beach for swimming and caipirinhas. A generous on-board lunch of grilled fish, rice, and tropical salad is served at anchor in a sheltered bay before the scenic return to Abraão in the afternoon.

Good to know

Full-day tour runs 08:30–17:00; confirm your specific boat's all-aboard compatibility when booking. Departures go from Abraão pier — no transfer needed. Bring a light cover-up, sunglasses, and reef-safe sunscreen. Pre-book online as spots on quality schooners sell out quickly in season.
