Nestled 100 kilometers from Rio de Janeiro, Saquarema is a picturesque town recognized for its vibrant surfing culture. It boasts the famous beaches of Vila and Itaúna, drawing enthusiasts from all around Brazil. The picturesque Saquarema Lagoon adds to its appeal, making it a perfect spot for stand-up-paddle. After the Saquarema Airdrome ceased operations in 2012, private aviation enthusiasts are now restricted to using a few private landing spots situated across the city.
Saquarema is known as the world capital of Kitesurfing and Wingfoil, as well as being an important surfing destination, famous for having some of the best waves in the country. Its main beaches, Vila and Itaúna, offer excellent conditions all year round for water sports. Known for their powerful waves, they have become iconic locations in the Brazilian surfing community. Experience the local lagoon by paddleboarding, finding challenging waves near its estuary.

Through the combination of the local fleet in Saquarema and a range of foreign aircraft, we facilitate hundreds of corporate flights and specialized aerial operations each year.
We have previously landed at multiple locations in Saquarema, but none of them are currently ICAO-approved and all require permission for landing. The local volleyball training center is the most accessible choice and features a dedicated helipad, situated only 200 meters from the coastline.
