Ilha Grande is one of the great diving spots in Brazil. Amateur and advanced divers find underwater attractions to have fun! With clean crystalline waters of pleasant temperature, it's one of the largest concentrations of shipwrecks in the world as it was a territory of battles between pirates and corsairs along the history.The full-day itinerary is taken into consideration pick-up & drop-off locations in the city of Rio de Janeiro by our private guide, boat tour in a shared group and with stops for pictures, contemplation, exploration, snacks or lunch, and a little shopping for souvenir.

Blue lagoon is one of the postcards of Ilha Grande, perfect spot for diving. The tonality of the water is incredible and the natural pools are very pleasant.It is one of the best places for snorkeling. There you will surely find many little fishes to be fed. Lagoa Verde has calm, transparent, and green waters.Japariz beach is a good stop for a break for lunch and a little shopping. It is inhabited by a small community of fishermen and traders who maintain intense communication with the continent.

Tourists can also take this opportunity to visit the nearby pretty Funil beach. Located among the mountain, the forest and the sea it's worth taking 15 minutes from the lunch time for visiting it. It has very clear waters and very calm sea, like a lake.Praia da Feiticeira is majestic for its natural beauty, surrounded by trees, flowers and many wild animals, and the typical sound of the Atlantic Forest.

It has a small strip of golden sand and the water is very crystalline, filled with stones that attract turtles and small fish, favoring the practice of snorkeling / floating. There is also a waterfall nearby.Tradition says that couples who kiss on the sand at Praia do Amor will never be apart. When in doubt, better not risk it! The pit stop serves only to fulfill the tradition and not give luck to the bad luck.
