Escape Rio de Janeiro for the day and discover one of the most beautiful destinations along Brazil’s Costa Verde on this full-day trip to Angra dos Reis, combining round-trip transportation from Rio with approximately 5 hours aboard a shared speedboat.
After traveling from Rio de Janeiro to Angra dos Reis, board your boat at Santa Luzia Station and begin exploring a spectacular landscape of tropical islands, beautiful beaches, and crystal-clear waters.
Your first stop is the famous Botinas Islands, two nearly identical small islands surrounded by calm, transparent waters that are perfect for swimming and observing marine life. Continue to Dentista Beach, known for its fine white sand and beautiful water.
The adventure also takes you to Piedade Beach, with calm, shallow waters, followed by Flechas Beach, where you’ll find local kiosks and restaurants and have time to purchase lunch.
At each stop, you’ll have the opportunity to leave the boat, swim, relax, and take photos before returning to Angra dos Reis for the journey back to Rio.

“Angra es espectacular. Las Botinas fueron nuestra parte favorita porque el agua estaba super transparente y pudimos nadar un buen rato. Es un día largo saliendo desde Río pero para nosotros valió totalmente la pena.”
