Paraty is a beautiful and quaint beach town on the coast of Brazil between São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. It was enjoyable to walk around the cobblestone streets, dine on fresh fish and bean dishes, and have a taste of the local drink.
We had a wonderful kayak trip around the calm ocean and through mangroves that reached beyond the land into the sea. It was a challenging workout, but it felt great to be active and out on the water!
