The Maria Panela schooner has been adapted and equipped to offer an exclusive gastronomic experience. Seating accommodates from 2 to up to 20 people, offering stemware service and place settings. The schooner anchors in Saco do Mamanguá, or in a locale with a favorable tide. The client enjoys a boat ride to the schooner, which is awaiting to serve them. Upon boarding, the chef will greet you and your group with a refreshing welcome drink and some delicious Brazilian snacks. Shortly thereafter, you can choose to stay aboard the schooner, enjoy the comfort and the sun and go for a swim, or enjoy some fun on the water with standup paddleboarding, kayaking, or snorkeling. At the agreed time, everyone returns to the boat to enjoy a marvelous lunch, with beach-inspired caiçara flavors with a sophisticated touch. Afterwards, the group can continue sipping on their libations and enjoying the sea. Depending on where the schooner is anchored, the passengers can catch a kayak until Cruzeiro Beach to do the Sugarloaf peak hike.
Drive from the hotel to Marina do Farol Pier for approx. 15min, and embark on a speed boat towards the Maria Panela schooner for approx. 15min.
