Meeting between Sea and Mountain

Explore the stunning Saco do Mamanguá, located in the Juatinga State Ecological Reserve, known as the “Brazilian Tropical Fjord” and technically an estuary. This expedition offers two itinerary options, both providing a unique immersion in the natural beauty and biodiversity of the region

Discover the paradisiacal and secluded beaches of Saco do Mamanguá.

An optional stop for lunch at the restaurants in the region allows you to enjoy authentic Caiçara cuisine.
