After the sanddunes we go first to the turtle bay and Shark bay. Here you can watch the turles and sharks in their natural habitat. Most turtles that can be seen are green turtles. Sometimes loggerhead turtles. At the shark bay you generally get to see lemon or nurse sharks. This is also the location where the baby sharks grow up until they are big enough before heading out to the deep waters. After the turtle bay and shark bay, we go to praia varandinha.

    I recommend!! From the tour, the only experience that was not possible was to see the sharks, otherwise we did everything and we loved it! We were family, it was an adventure for the little one, and always safe. Without doubt it would not have been the same if it had not been the company, the experience and knowledge, and above all the attention and sympathy of Mr. ARLINDO 😊. We liked it so much that we booked Snorkeling with Mr. Arlindo and Captain Bony 😉, this experience also highly recommend! Thank you for everything and see you next time!

    Amazing experience from start to finish. For the price of this excursion I would recommend everyone to go and see the island this way! The tour guide is exceptional and really ensures you enjoy your trip, we had Arlindo and he was super friendly and helpful! Our trip took around 4-5 hours which was a perfect amount of time for us. With a group of 7 people, I felt it was a great size for us all to experience what we wanted to. We saw multiple turtles and also a bunch of sharks which was super exciting. The sand boarding and beautiful beaches were incredible. Amazing atmosphere and even better company/tour guide, thank you for this experience. If you’re contemplating booking, I suggest you go for it! :)
