Excursion Schooner cruise to jabaquara beach tour at Ilhabela

Enjoy an exhilarating sail onboard a traditional Brazilian wooden schooner and discover one of the nation's favorite beaches. Take a swim in this tranquil setting or simply relax on the beach with the soft sand under your feet.

Brazilian Schooner Cruise

Depart directly from the pier area on your wooden schooner for an approximately one-hour sail to Jabaquara Beach. Beautiful beaches, more than 300 waterfalls and an enormous variety of the Atlantic Rain Forest's fauna and flora are all factors that helped name the island "Ilhabela" - the beautiful island.  Approximately 85% of the island is defined as a national park and is designated by UNESCO as a national patrimony and one of the last untouched areas of the Atlantic Rainforest.

Jabaquara Beach

Take a small boat ashore at Jabaquara Beach, one of Brazil's most treasured stretches of sand, for a few hours of relaxation, swimming and sun bathing. With soft sands and cut by two crystalline creeks, Jabaquara Beach offers enchantment, tranquility and a special charm. Even for non-swimmers the beauty of the scenery and white sand beaches alternating with the green and blue waters of the ocean and greenery make this a most enjoyable outing.

Light refreshments are included.
