nearby, the lagoons jacarepia and vermelha are also a precious corner of this area where to relax and enjoy nature - this is an area blessed with stunning natural beauty and fortunately, there are a host of inspiring excursions for visitors to undertake, in saquarema.

one of the most magical trips is to the waterfalls of serra do roncador (cachoeiras da serra do roncador) - hidden up a mountain trail, and surrounded by pristine forest, the six waterfalls of serra do roncador are of remarkable beauty, and absolutely worth a visit. 

less than 30 kilometers from the town itself, they are just a short bus or car ride away, but seeing as the only access is through forest trails, it is best for visitors to be accompanied by guides.
