Beach sights in Paraty

  1. Beaches

    The closest fine beaches on the coast - Vermelha and Lulas (northeast of Paraty) and Saco do Mamanguá (to the east) - are an hour away by boat. The best island beaches nearby are probably Araújo and Sapeca; many other islands have rocky shores and are private. The mainland beaches tend to be better; most have barracas (stalls) serving beer and fish and, at most, a handful of beachgoers.

    Praia do Pontal

    Back in Paraty, walking north across the river, the first beach you'll reach is Praia do Pontal. A handful of open-air restaurants lines its shore, but the water can get a bit murky. The cleaner and relatively secluded Praia do Forte lies a quick walk north from there.
