A 7 day adventure exploring the magical coastline of Brazil on a tall ship!

A fantastic journey aboard the Tocorimé Tall Ship sailing along the most exotic landscapes of the Brazilian coastline. Pass mountains dipping into the sea, isolated beaches and inviting blue-green waters. Get involved—grab the till, climb the mast or dive to inspect the hull—or just to sit back and relax, and let the world sail by.

Day 1: Arrive Rio de Janeiro

Arrive in Rio - board at 12 o'clock noon.

Day 2: Set sail from Rio de Janeiro

Embark on your adventure with a scenic 12 hour sail along the Brazilian coast with unbeatable views of Rio's famous horizon, lush rainforest and long, lonely beaches. Onboard duties will be set out for everyone who wishes to help out.

Day 3: Ilha Grande, Enseada das Palmas

Anchor at beautiful Ilha Grande. Explore Enseada das Palmas by sea, with a snorkel or kayak, or on foot. Settle your heart rate by watching the sun set at the stunning Lopes Mendes beach. Conclude your fun-filled day with dinner and drinks on the beach.

Day 4: Lagoa Azul, Saco do Ceu

Set sail for Lagoa Azul (Blue Lagoon), Sítio Forte and Saco do Céu, with the possibility of a small hiking adventure through landscapes of beautiful deserted beaches. In the evening phosphorescent sea plankton give us a fantastic fluorescent show. Anchor at Saco do Céu.

Day 5: Mamanguá Ecological Reserve

Depart early for Mamanguá Ecological Reserve, the only fjord in Brazil. Improve your tan relaxing on the beach or partake in your choice of activities for an up close and personal encounter with the local flora and fauna. After lunch enjoy a rainforest hike or waterfall expedition before nighttime festivities on the beach. Anchor at Mamanguá.

Day 6: Ilha da Beixiga, arrive Paraty

Sail today to the pristine waters and islands of the Paratimirim Peninsula. Have a Robinson Crusoe moment during a visit to the stunning Ilha da Beixiga, a private island which only we have permission to visit. Only a short sail away is the historic port town of Paraty, a quintessential Brazilian colonial town famous for fantastic seafood, the Brazilian drink Cachaça, and the rhythms of Bossa Nova.

Day 7: Depart Paraty

Explore the 16th century fort on the island and enjoy this tropical paradise for your final morning. Disembark the Tocorimé around noon. Boa viagem!
