Highlights

Located in the Lagos Region, about 100 km from Rio de Janeiro, Saquarema is one of Brazil's main surfing destinations. The city is famous for its incredible beaches, powerful waves, and strong connection to surf culture. During the experience, you will have a personalized surfing lesson, with all necessary equipment included. After class, the boards remain available so you can continue practicing and enjoying the sea. We will also make a stop for lunch in Saquarema and savor the local cuisine before continuing the day. And, of course, we recorded the experience with photos so you can take home memories of this unforgettable day. A perfect experience for those who want to go beyond the beaches of Rio and discover one of the most authentic and important surfing destinations in Brazil. A whole day of travel, beach, surfing, and incredible landscapes!

About Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro sweeps between mountains and ocean, a city of famous beaches, granite peaks, samba rhythms and a carnival known around the world.

Christ the Redeemer stands with open arms atop Corcovado, looking down on the city, and cable cars climb Sugarloaf Mountain for views across Guanabara Bay. Below, the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema are the stage for daily life, with volleyball, kiosks and the wave-patterned promenade, while Leblon and Arpoador extend the strip.

Top-ranked sights in Rio de Janeiro: Christ the Redeemer Statue (Cristo Redentor), Sugarloaf Mountain (Pao de Açúcar), Selarón Steps (Escadaria Selarón).
