What you can expect
Start your day in a truly unforgettable way on Ilha Grande. The Polynesian canoeing experience at sunrise is perfect for those seeking tranquility, a connection with nature, and a special moment away from the daily grind.
The activity starts at 4:30 AM, when the early-morning silence still envelops Abraão Bay. After a brief orientation from the instructors, you will board the Polynesian canoe and begin a gentle, guided paddle, which is ideal even for beginners. No previous experience is necessary.
The approximately 6-kilometer (3.7-mile) route takes you through some of the region’s most enchanting landscapes, including Morcego Island, Crena Beach, Abraão Island, Praia Preta Beach, and Abraão Beach. Along the way, there are strategic stops for contemplation, swimming in the sea, and observing nature.
The highlight of the experience is the sunrise over the sea. Gradually, the sky changes color, reflecting in the water and creating a unique setting, offering a moment of peace and contemplation that engages the mind, body, and emotions.
The tour lasts approximately 2 hours and ends at around 6:30 a.m. Throughout the tour, you will be accompanied by experienced instructors, ensuring your safety and providing support at all times.
The experience includes all necessary equipment, such as a canoe, paddles, and a life jacket, as well as photo and video documentation so you can cherish this special moment.
This is an ideal activity for couples, families, solo travelers, and anyone who wants to experience Ilha Grande in a unique, authentic, and memorable way.
