WHERE ARE WE GOING TO SAIL? ARE THERE SPECIFIC ROUTES?

It depends on the chosen tour. In the short ride, the sailing will take place inside Guanabara Bay, passing by Niterói, Museum of Tomorrow, Morro da Urca, among other points. In the long walk, we will leave Guanabara Bay towards the Cagarras Islands.
