| Page Views: 3,160 Last Visit to Arraial do Cabo: - | IT STARTED WITH OUR DEAR FRIEND FIRST DIVE.. by janaina - last update: Nov 15, 2002 |
Saturday night,paulo's home,a bbq. He always dreamed to dive,and we are trying to convince him that,though he's a little claustrofoby,in the deep sea the feeling is like an open space!! Than he said,he would feel too close inside all the equipment..resumed:took a long night conversation,but it came to a result..he agreed!! Next step,to find a dive master who will have all the patience to understand our fellow's fears..who?? Many names came up,but the best was Carlinhos,from Arraial Do Cabo. A short phone call,and all aranged:in 10 days,during a long weekend,he'll do it..well,Carlinhos didn't forget to tell Paulo his first dive was in Arraial too(but didn't mentioned he was only 5 years old then!!). Here pictures will be from his dive,but info will follow about this wonderful place!Picture:Paulao thinks:should I??? BON VIRTUALE VOYAGE!! |
|  | Arraial is about 160km from Rio,just side-by-side with Cabo Frio. We took 2 cars.Temperatures were amazing that weekend,around 26-28 celsius,mean,not hot for us here! The city is located in a region called: "Lakes Region".Its considered the best Brazilian site for dive,and an amazing place,as the natives say:better,only the sky!! Here,the trip staff,except Paulao,who took the picture!! |
We took the boat from "Dos Anjos"(angels' beach) beach,where,from its port all the trip/dive or big boats leave the place. This beach was where the sewage of the area "met" the ocean,and it was closed for a long long time. Nowadays,thxs God,it had been despoluted finally,and it is open again! |  | |
