Galeria River
Surf shops, skateboard and rollerblade outlets, and shops selling beachwear and fashions for young nubile things fill this shopping gallery in Arpoador. Shorts, bikinis, swim trunks, party attire and gear for outdoor adventure are in abundance. The shops here – like Ocean Surf Shop – are a good place to inquire about board rentals, which cost about US$10 per day. Those interested in rock climbing and trekking should stop by the Casa do Montanhista, a hiking-apparel store, for more information about courses.
