Things to see and do Ilhabela

It is the last beach on the north coast accessible by car, one of the most famous because it offers a panoramic view. White sand and green panorama. Some dining options. A walk (with guide) leads to praia da Fome from this beach in 3 hours of hiking.

It is surrounded by coconut trees. Many people in the summer.

It is the central beach where many shops are located. Starting point for excursions and cycling. Not the nicest of course, but the most lively and accessible. Many young people.

Beach between those of Jabaquara and do Poço with transparent waters ideal for diving. Calm sea, shaded beach thanks to many trees. One can see the ruins of a historical fortin, this beach was a high place for the slave trade. Access by boat or a 3-hour walk from Jabaquara through a balisé hiking path (only with guide).

It stretches over nearly 2 km of fine sand, its crystal-clear water is the reputation of this beach, which lies at the end of the 22 km long, long-standing ground that cuts the island into two (4 x 4). It is easier to access by boat, coming to excursions, but the athletes (real!) can hike 7 km from the beach of Bonete, more south.

It's the fastest and easy ride to go swimming in the fresh and clear water of a waterfall. Access from inside the Mata Atlântica. Departure of the estadual park. We will discover five falls along the 2,5 km journey.

Close to Saco Do, this beach is surrounded by steep, isolated and exclusive hills. A hidden paradise 300 metres wide behind the Ilha das Galhetas. A small fisherman's house is there. Scuba diving is popular there. The easiest thing is to access it by the sea by boat, but it can also be reached by foot through the Mata Atlântica. From the beach of Castelhanos, a footpath passes through the beaches Mansa and Vermelha and leads to Figueira beach. Take 2 hours of walking.
