アラヤル・ド・カボの見どころ

Arraial do Cabo Essentials

Arraial do Cabo is defined by its unique 'resurgência' phenomenon, where cold, nutrient-rich currents create exceptionally clear turquoise waters. This selection highlights the region's diverse coastal geography, from the protected white sands of Ilha do Cabo Frio to the dramatic cliffs of Pontal do Atalaia. The list includes historical landmarks like the 16th-century landing site at Praia dos Anjos and natural sea caves such as Gruta Azul, alongside the city's Oceanographic Museum which documents the local marine ecosystem.
