Araruama

Araruama is the largest lake in the state of Rio de Janeiro and is famous for its medicinal mud. The salinity is extremely high, the waters calm, and almost the entire lake is surrounded by sandy beaches. Araruama is also host to one of the most famous kitesurfing spots in Brazil called Arubinha centrally located at the south side of the lake between Praia Seca and Figueira. There is a constant breeze throughout the year, the water is shallow and calm, and the kitesurfing experience can be amazing if strong winds come in. In our case, however, the wind was not that strong, and we could not enjoy this spot as much as we wanted.
