Tour Details
At the designated time we'll meet at Cais Santa Luzia to begin this tour of Angra dos Reis's surroundings.
Our first stop will be the Angra Nuclear Power Plant, consisting of two nuclear reactors, Angra 1 and Angra 2. These are the only ones in the country! This location provides fascinating information about how nuclear reactors generate electricity.
As well as this, on this tour we'll learn about the history of nuclear energy in Brazil and its relationship with society and the environment. You'll get to engage with informative videos, models, and interactive panels. After exploring the observatory, you'll have a chance to take pictures while we enjoy a coffee break.
After learning about how electricity is generated, we'll begin our tour of the Southern Tourist Route in Angra dos Reis. Time to relax on idyllic beaches!
The first beach we'll visit will be Praia do Laboratório, close to the power plants. Here we'll take a short walk around the beautiful natural surroundings, and you'll have free time to enjoy its warm waters. Did you know that the water temperatures here are like those at a hot spring? So relaxing!
Our next stop will be Praia Brava, a beach divided into two: one side with rough seas and the other more tranquil. Aside from admiring its beauty, you'll also have the chance to walk along the boardwalk and grab yourself a bite to eat.
Lastly, after 5 to 6 hours, we'll return to our initial meeting point to conclude our tour.
