Arraial Do Cabo

This charming town, Cabo, is one of the greatest sites for scuba diving in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Some of the most popular sea species live in the calm and transparent seas, including dolphins, sea turtles, sea horses, and shoals of fish. The waters here benefit from the resurgence phenomenon, which ensures that the oceans will be teeming with life throughout the year. The cave drive is suitable for advanced divers.

There is an 18th-century shipwreck of a ship named Dona Paula, making it a fascinating diving location. The Arraial Do Cabo islands are around 3 hours away from Rio. There are frequent bus services available beginning at 5 a.m., or you may hire a vehicle to traverse the distance and visit the neighboring places as well.

Location: 170 kilometers east of Brazil's capital
