The schooner slips away from Santa Luzia as morning light tilts across Guanabara Bay; salt on the air, islands rising like dark emeralds from glassy water. You feel the hull settle into a steady rhythm and the skipper points the bow toward the Blue Lagoon — a shallow cove where water goes crystalline and small fish thread around your ankles, daring you to drop a mask and look closer.
easy.
6 hours.
Suitable for most fitness levels; able to step on/off a boat and swim for short snorkeling sessions.
The advertised duration is about 6 hours, typically a morning departure with multiple short stops and a longer lunch stop at Praia das Flechas.
Some operators provide or rent snorkel gear; bringing your own mask ensures better fit and hygiene—check with your booking for availability.
The trip is suitable for families, but boarding and shore access may be awkward for people with limited mobility—notify the operator ahead for assistance.
Lunch at Praia das Flechas is optional and not included; expect local restaurants to offer seafood and casual plates—cash is handy.
Angra dos Reis grew as a colonial port and fishing center; the islands served as navigation markers and small‑scale fishing grounds for generations.
The islands lie adjacent to protected Atlantic Forest and marine areas—use reef‑safe products, avoid touching corals, and take all trash back to the mainland.
