Itinerary
- Sugar Loaf is an icon in Rio de Janeiro. Seeing it from the water and at a short distance is very impacting. Great for photographing!

- Appreciate this exquisite masterpiece of architect Oscar Niemeyer from the water.
- Main central beach in Niteroi where many locals reside in tall apartment building oceanfront.
- Another residential area in Niteroi served by many sailing clubs.
- This is an old fisherman community where many still keep their fishing boats.
