In this adventure, an experienced guide will help you explore the fauna and flora of our beautiful region as we search for the whale sightings that have been occurring along the coast in recent days. You’ll learn about the reasons behind these giants’ journey to our peaceful shores and may have the chance to spot these lovely whales with their adorable giant calves!

To make the experience even richer, the guide will share fascinating historical insights about our coastline. Possibly passing by ancient remnants of the Sambaqui peoples, as well as old whale-oil structures and indigenous watercraft, such as the traditional “canoa de um pau só” (dugout canoe).
