Morning light slides across low limestone cliffs as you push off from the sand at Praia do Alemão. The sea here is unusually quiet early in the day — few boats, only the skitter of seabirds and the slap of paddle against water. Guides roll out boards from a van parked 50m from the shore, and a small group threads between rocky outcrops, past little coves where tides expose wrinkled rock and tiny pools.
