What people say

Jasmine B
"A favorite activity among locals is altinha, a form of beach volleyball played with the feet. If you’re looking for something more relaxing, paddleboarding at Arpoador or Praia do Leme is highly recommended. You can rent a paddleboard from the local beach barracas and take in the beautiful surroundings."
"End your day at Posto 7 – Near Arpoador, this area is famous for incredible sunsets and a scenic view of the “Two Brothers” mountains. Surfers flock here for the waves, and it’s a prime spot for watching the sun dip below the horizon. "

"Grab a beer or a caipirinha with your friends, and climb up the Arpoador rock, aka Arpex, to enjoy the sunset behind Dois Irmãos mountains and live a breath taking moment."
