Our history
HáMar is a dream born long time ago. It all started with some random tours with friends and tourists some years ago. People kept asking for more so we felt that would be a nice ideia to start a local business.
HáMar in portuguese language means literally "there is sea" but also contains three words "há","amar" and "mar" which meanings are "there is", "loving" and "sea". HáMar word tries to translate our love by the sea.
HáMar started operations in 2016.
