Águas Belas + Barra Nova Excursion

On this Águas Belas and Barra Nova excursion, you'll hop on a dune buggy to explore Ceará's scenic beaches.

Description

We'll start our adventure by promptly picking you up at your hotel in Fortaleza. The day includes an exciting dune buggy tour of the pristine desert beaches of Ceará, starting at Águas Belas.

After about a two-hour trip, we'll arrive at the beautiful Águas Belas beach, known for its enchanting natural pools that emerge during low tide. Águas Belas is the meeting point of the Malcozinhado River and the Atlantic Ocean.

As our journey continues, we'll visit local weavers to explore Ceará's artisanal heritage. You'll also see how they make panela and various sugar-related products at a sugar cane mill.

We'll cross the river by raft to embark on a one-and-a-half hour dune buggy tour through Barra Nova, covering 8 kilometers (4.9 miles) of desert beaches before we jump into the fresh waters of the lagoon.

After the activities, we'll ensure you return to your Fortaleza hotel safely, concluding a memorable day spanning approximately 10 hours.
