Tour tips

Bring a snorkel to observe the marine life calmly and respectfully, plus a waterproof bag to protect your belongings. A light windbreaker helps on the way back, when it can get windier. To enter the Gruta do Acaiá, go for shorts in dark colors, as your clothes may get dirty along the way.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about the tour

What is the Acaiá Cave tour like?
The Gruta do Acaiá tour combines swimming stops with one of the most unique experiences on Ilha Grande: entering the Gruta do Acaiá. Inside the rock formation, the light passes through the water and creates an intense blue effect, making the setting even more stunning.

The itinerary also passes through places like Blue Lagoon, Lagoa Verde, and Saco do Céu, bringing together snorkeling and the landscapes of the Costa Norte. The visit to the cave includes low, narrow sections, and is recommended for those over 10 years old and for anyone comfortable with this type of access.
Do I need to know how to swim or have snorkeling experience?
No. Snorkeling is simple and suitable for all ages, and life jackets are available on board. Bring or rent a mask if you want to make the most of the crystal-clear waters.
Does the tour happen even if it rains?
Yes. Tours depart normally, even on rainy days. They are only interrupted in cases involving passenger safety, such as rough seas — and in those situations we notify you as early as possible.
What if the tour is canceled due to bad weather?
You choose between three options: reschedule for another available day during your stay, receive a credit for future use (open-dated) or a full refund. Refunds are processed within 7 business days.
Are the tours suitable for children?
Yes, we have tours for the whole family. The boat trips are relaxing and ideal for children. Longer itineraries and trails require a little more preparation — we always inform the difficulty level of each tour. If you have any doubts about age, please speak to our team.
Do I need to have bought a package to do the tour?
No. We offer individual tours — just let us know the date and the tour of interest, and we'll check availability for you.
