Travel Guide Ilha De Gipóia

A stopover between Rio and Paraty, Gipóia is one of Angra's islands well worth a visit. Gipóia is a great spot for a day out in nature. It can be reached by fishing boat from Angra harbour. It is richly endowed with beaches, all different and offering a variety of activities. The atmosphere is festive at Armação, and sporty at Brava and Fora, where surfing is regularly practiced. In Amaral, where there is no infrastructure, you'll find peace and quiet. The beach at Amendoeiras is ideal for diving, as its waters are transparent. There is a wide range of accommodation, from the rustic to the more sophisticated.
