Overview

Rio de Contas is the reason why Itacaré exists where it does — and this tour goes up its waters by speedboat, through a stretch known as Venice Itacareense, to Cachoeira do Cleandro, reachable only by this waterway. Two departure times allow you to choose between morning and evening, the latter with the option of watching the sunset on board.

The experience

The boat ascends the Rio de Contas through a section where the vegetation closes on the banks, in the so-called Veneza Itacareense — a name that already conveys the green density of the scene. After around three hours dedicated to Cachoeira do Cleandro, including bathing, the route descends back past Praia do Pontal, where the afternoon time allows you to watch the sunset directly from the water, and ends on the historic shore of Itacaré, back to the starting point.

Destaques

  • Climb of Rio de Contas through Veneza Itacareense
  • Bathing at Cachoeira do Cleandro, access only possible by boat
  • Passage through Praia do Pontal, with the option of sunset on board in the afternoon
  • Return along the historic waterfront of Itacaré

Choose the afternoon time if you want to end the tour with the sunset on Praia do Pontal — the same itinerary, with a different ending.
