The signature experience is the guided stand-up paddle session along Copacabana. On calm water, you glide across the sea with a view of the iconic beach and Rio's mountain scenery. The activity combines balance, light fitness, and a nature experience. Especially suitable for beginners, travelers, and anyone who wants to experience Rio through sports. The water is usually calmest early in the morning.
This activity is particularly suitable for active travelers, groups of friends, or couples who want to experience Copacabana beach in a new way. The early morning hours are ideal when the sea is calmer. Swimwear, sun protection, and a towel are all you need. Parking is available along Avenida Atlântica as well as in nearby parking garages, usually just a few minutes' walk from the beach.
