Paddling near Teresina, Piauí

Teresina sits at the confluence of the Rio Parnaíba and Rio Poti in the state of Piauí, and both rivers are the heart of the local paddling scene. The Parnaíba is wide enough for scenic sunset runs past the city's landmark bridges, while the Poti draws paddlers past the paleontological curiosity of Teresina's fossil forest, where Permian-era logs are exposed along the banks.
