Ilha Grande offers 106 beaches,
each one with a different attraction due to the
extravagant geography of the island, which combines
diverse elements to obtain a wide variety of landscapes.
We can group the beaches in different styles
and groups:
The most popular and visited beaches are those
set place in Abraão Bay, and because of
their proximity with the village they receive
the larger number of the visitors. They are Abraão,
Canto, Júlia, Comprida, Bica, Crena, Guaxuma
e Abraãozinho. They have calm
green water and dense vegetation.
Walking west from the Abraão
village we arrive at Preta beach,
with its black sand, from which its name is taken.
This beaches compound the portion turned to continent
and because of that their water is very calm,
with transparent greens and turquoises. We can
mention many more like Feiticeira,
Japariz, Freguesia de Santana, Saco do Céu,
Funil and the famous Lagoa Azul (Blue Lagoon), where the transparent
turquoise remember a natural pool. More west we
can find Enseada do Bananal, Sítio
Forte, Lagoa Verde, Araçatiba,
among others.
There is another group of beaches with very different
characteristics. They are turned to Atlantic Ocean,
where the water is blue and the waves are high.
There is a great variety of tones of blues, from
intense to the transparent of the famous Lopes
Mendes and the “caribean” Aventureiro beach. Dois
Rios, Santo Antônio e Caxadaço have unforgettable
beauty, and because of it the visit is obligated.
There are beaches of all types and sizes. By now
we invite you to visit our Photography Album and we expect for your visit very soon in the company
of the people who most know the island, the Ilhagrande
Adventure Team.
