40 km of crystal clear water with waves to surf. White, thin and soft sand. Amazing sunset. Perfect place to chill! There is a trail to reach the top of the hill by it to have better spot of the sunset. Def worth it.

This beach is really wonderful and has a beautiful sea. To access it you have to walk to a 15 minute trail that it’s kind of hard to old or physical disable people, but once you reach the gazebo you can have an amazing view of the beach that’s breath taking! The trail and the access to the beach it’s free, but you can go by taxi boat and skip the trail. Just remember that’s no allowed to enter the beach with any kind of glass.

Good place. Many options for food and drink. The sea isn't so clean at times, specially when winding. Good to go with friends and to walk at sand. For who likes history, this beach was where Americo Vespucio arrived in 1503, starting the colonization process. You can know the church Nossa Senhora dos Remédios (Our Lady of the Remedies).
