Refúgio da Barra - River Bathing and Stand-Up Paddle
About this tour
Discover the enchanting Refúgio da Barra, nestled along the most pristine stretch of the Rio Formoso. Our river bathing area offers 200 meters of crystal-clear waters, framed by two inviting decks. One, a magnificent 30-meter expanse in front of our restaurant, even features a unique in-river pool, perfect for our youngest adventurers aged up to 5. The expansive, manicured lawn, gently sloping to the river's edge, sets the scene for an unforgettable day immersed in natural splendor.
Embark on an exhilarating Stand-Up Paddle journey! Your adventure begins with a comprehensive safety briefing from our expert monitor. Then, paddle upstream for 300 meters towards the legendary Rio Sucuri, where you'll be captivated by the untouched beauty of the flora and fauna that thrive in this pristine ecosystem. Our journey culminates approximately 100 meters before the majestic confluence of the Rio Sucuri and Rio Formoso. From there, we gracefully turn and paddle back, allowing you to relive the breathtaking scenery from a new perspective.
