A paradise, beauty beyonds any words all around,thin clean bright sand dazzling us under a beautiful sky, definitively one of the most amazing beaches I have seen in years. There is a bit of hiking to get there,an around 20 minutes walk across a stunning forest, we saw colorful birds in it and eagles on the beach.

It's a good beach, but I wouldn't say it's the best beach I have ever seen in brasil. It's a nice beach, but it's quite similar and in my opinion not more special than other beaches I have been to in Brasil.

One of the best beaches i have seen. Do it or…. No Do It! Nothing more to say

A 2 hour hike from main Ilha Grande port and pretty steep. Around 300m elevation gain. You can get a taxi boat back in both the bays. The beach itself is nice, but not particularly beautiful. It’s surrounded by mountains though. No food or drink there. The waves are pretty large if you want to swim

This place is SURREAL! We got to visit this beach early in the morning and it was a magical moment alone in the world! There is a small walk of around 15 minutes to get there, if you are lucky enough you will spot monkeys and birds !

What a beach 🏝 a real paradise beach. The beach is very long so you can easily find a suite spot away from the crowds. There is little food and drinks for sale on the beach, so make sure you bring some before you leave. It is also a bit of a muddy hike trough the jungle before you get to the beach, so best to wear the right footwear

Very good beach if you are a surfer. There are large waves there. If you want to swim this isn't the place. There are surfing schools on the beach, stands with drinks. There is no taxi boat that you can take from there (unless you have arranged pick up in advance).

the hike is definitely worth doing

Soft soft white beach when you step on the sand its like stepping into fresh snow that crunch sound! We walked from Abraão beach through the forest. If you are a hiker I recommend it, its a 2hr hike. BUT I’m not a hiker so took us 3 hrs while it was beautiful and we saw monkeys and birds if i do it again I’d take a boat so i have more time on the beach

Great beach, one the best on the island so the hike

The most wonderful beach I have ever experienced. I hope it stays clean and without any facility and hotels, leaving it as it is makes this the best place on earth. Clean warm and calm water, beautiful white sand, small fishes and places to hide from the hot sun. Not many people go there so it’s super quiet.

Very long sandy beach. Apparently once voted among the best beaches in the world but I don't see why, as it is not very special or photogenic. The life guards mark most of the beach unsafe to swim and only leave a small part open in front of their watch tower. But that part is so shallow that it's not possible to swim there and beyond that there are huge waves so again not swimmable. The best thing about the beach is that it is so big you can find a spot with no one around. The trail to get there from the drop off point is about 20 minutes and you can see some cute looking monkeys there if you're lucky.

Beautiful lagoon, but not as pretty as the Green one from the same trip. The blue lagoon is getting dirtier due to the amount of tourists there. It was crowded with mini boats. Please take good care when you visit there!

(Translated by Google) Great place to be. They usually go by speedboats and boat trips, but it is possible to get there by kayak if you have some experience. Very clear water with many fish. Great for snorkeling and taking pictures. (Original) Ótimo lugar de ser ir. Geralmente vão de lanchas e passeios de barco, mas é possível chegar de caiaque se tiver alguma experiência. Água bem transparente e com muitos peixes. Ótimo para snorkel e para tirar fotos.

(Translated by Google) I did a round trip with Top Transfer and had a very good experience. They pick you up in a van and take you to Porto Real resort so you can board the boat. That's right, the tour is done on a speedboat for greater mobility. It is very fast and with that, you can visit more beaches, islands and lagoons. Top Transfer does the opposite tour of schooners and larger vessels, so you will always find destinations empty or not very crowded. The blue lagoon is beautiful and has lots of fish 🤩🐟 I highly recommend a tour with them. I have all the highlights about this tour on my Instagram. 🗺️🏝️🛥️🚐 My Instagram is @vidadecariocaa. (Original) Fiz um bate e volta com a Top Transfer e tive uma experiência muito boa. Eles te buscam de Van e te levam até porto real resort para você embarcar na lancha. Isso mesmo, o passeio é feito em lancha para você maior locomoção. Ela é bem rápida e com isso, você consegue conhecer mais praias, ilhas e lagoas. A Top Transfer faz o passeio inverso das escunas e embarcações maiores, então, você sempre encontrar os destinos vazios ou pouco cheio. A lagoa azul é lindíssima e tem muitos peixes 🤩🐟 Recomendo demais o passeio com eles. Tenho em meu Instagram todos os destaques sobre esse passeio. 🗺️🏝️🛥️🚐 Meu Instagram é @vidadecariocaa.

(Translated by Google) It's very beautiful here. Both from the part above the water, and both from the part below the water. Especially the part below the water is unfortunately beautiful and not very resistant. It is being destroyed by barbecue boats that throw garbage into the waters. Paper with mayonnaise, bones, cans, bags, plastic cups, straws, butts. They play funk music so loud that you can't even talk 100 meters away. Furthermore, there were around 80 jetskis competing, above the corals, above the fish that are the reason for the beauty of the place! We know that these machines ruin peace above water. But it's 10x worse underwater, it disrupts life there, right? I wanted to cry, I felt very sad. Isn't it possible to enjoy the beauty without destroying it? (Original) É muito bonito aqui. Tanto da parte acima da água, e tanto da parte abaixo da água. Especialmente a parte abaixo da água é de uma beleza infelizmente pouca resistente. Tá sendo destruído por barquinhos de churrasco que joga lixo nas águas. Papel com maionese, ossos, latas, sacolas, copos plásticos, canudos, bitucas. Tocam música funk tão alta que não dá nem conversar a 100 metros distância. Além disso, tinha uns 80 jetski fazendo competição, acima dos corais, acima dos peixes que são o razão da beleza do lugar! Sabemos quê essas máquinas acabam com o sossego acima da água. Mas é 10x pior abaixo da água, desregula a vida ali neh. Deu vontade de chorar, senti muito triste. Será que não dá aproveitar a beleza sem destruir lá?

(Translated by Google) It was a really good trip there, I really enjoyed it. (Original) Já foi um passeio lá muito bom gostei para caramba

(Translated by Google) Great place to have fun with friends and family, a peaceful environment that transmits peace and we see the perfect nature of the creation of the creator of heaven and earth, the fish enchant the heart!! (Original) Ótimo lugar para se divertir com amigos e familiares, ambiente tranquilo que transmite paz e enxergamos a natureza perfeita da criação do criador do céu e da terra, os peixinhos encanta o coração!!

(Translated by Google) An impressive place. Center of almost all the tours they offer in abraao and rightly so. Clear, blue waters that give it its name with many fish to see. They sell some coconut sweets that they take you to the boat to die for, don't forget to try them. (Original) Un lugar impresionante. Centro de casi todos los tours que ofrecen en abraao y con toda la razón. Aguas claras y azules que le dan su nombre con muchos peces para ver. Venden unos dulces de coco que te llevan al bote para morirse no dejen de probarlos.

(Translated by Google) Magnificent little cove, turquoise water and fish in abundance, an open-air aquarium. Keep your eyes peeled, there are magnificent sea turtles to observe. I recommend arriving very early in the morning (fishermen or taxi boats can take you there for a few euros). After a certain hour it's really no longer pleasant (large boats full of tourists, loud music, drop anchor and greatly degrade the tranquility and magic of the place). (Original) Magnifique petite crique, eau turquoise et poissons à profusion, un aquarium à ciel ouvert. Bien ouvrir l’œil, il y a des tortues de mer magnifique à observer. Je conseil d’arriver très tôt le matin (des pêcheurs ou bateaux taxi peuvent vous y emmener pour quelques euros). Après une certaine heure ce n’est vraiment plus agréable (de gros bateaux plein de touristes, musique à tue-tête, jettent l’ancre et dégradent fortement la quiétude et magie de l’endroit).

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful stops in Angra dos Reis, great for diving, photos and relaxing. Water of a surprising color. I don't know how to swim and I used noodles, I managed to stay calmly in the place (but don't move away and be careful!) (Original) Uma das paradas mais lindas de Angra dos Reis, linda para mergulho, fotos e relaxar. Água de uma coloração surpreendente. Não sei nadar e usei macarrão, consegui ficar tranquilamente no local (mas não se afaste e tome cuidado!)

Our boat stopped here for us to have a swim or snorkel. What a beautiful spot, there was lots of marine life here, fishes were big and colourful. One of the tourist spotted a turtle bit unfortunately I didn't get to see one!

Amazing water and landscape. A must

Brilliant group of islands

Amazing !

Another stop on our boat tour. Everyone had pool noodles to enjoy the warm clear water and all the fishies swimming close by. You don't actually go on the island.

Totally an awesome experience of nature at its finest. Swimming, snorkeling, relaxing. I would recommend not going on holiday weekends or during peak seasons though, unless you find a hidden unpopular beach or cove. It gets pretty crowded with boat traffic and people. If you are into the crowds etc go for it! 😁

Lovely little islands with plenty of fish to see. The rocks are very slippery and dangerous.

Get there early and you'll have a wonderful experience snorkeling with all the sea life. Gets too crowded to enjoy afterwards.

It's a beautiful place. I just wish we had more time to explore each island and not just stop in the middle of the water just to swim and move on to a different place!

Fantastic place to spend the day. Pack up with own goods and have a quiet time in paradise

Beautiful but get here early, fills up with people quickly!

A nice beach, crystal clear that you can see lots of fish.

Paradise on Earth!

Very nice small beach,you need boat to go there.

Beautiful island with beautiful water! There are small islands along the way!

Amazing island . love it . You need to sée all the small island beside

Nice isle, small beach bar.

Top ,

Lovely Islands that are truly exotic. Great Schooner (Boats with Wind sails) tours available and a various points to see. one of the favorite spot is called Lagoa Azul (Blue Lagoon) where the water is clearest and lovely snorkeling site. Even considering the fact we travelled there in a pretty bad weather, the place looked amazing.

Stunning scenery and a chilled out atmosphere. Really good hostels and places to eat and drink. Lopes Mendes beach is a highlight. Pico do Papagaio (Parrot's Peak) is an amazing view, but it's one hell of a trek. If you are quite fit, it is well worth the effort. Ignore the signs and tourist information insistance of the need for a guide. The path is easy to follow. Easytransfer is a useful company that can pick you up from your hostel/hotel in Rio and take to the island including the ferry trip ($R85 each way). Also goes to Paraty.

One of my favorite places in Brasil! Lopes Mendes is the best beach, and Abraão is very comfortable to stay. Definitely you must stay in Abraão and not in Angra! There are restaurants and markets very convenient.

Loved everything around this Island and they have beautiful beaches. The prices are very reasonable and they have allot of activities to do for the whole family.

One of the best places to visit ever. The island is a unique place. It is an island with no cars, a lot of virgin beaches, some of them with small cascades and waterfalls to relax after swimming. Huge forest and mountains to hike, like "pico do papagaio"

Great park, amazing hikes available there. The trail tô Dois Rios is an uneven rocky road but still ok! You can hear some loud monkeys (bugio) on the way, see beautiful butterflies and birds and also some jungle fruits. An amazing experience.

With no doubt, Ilha Grande is one of the best places in the world 🗺.

Very calm, relaxing, and romantic

What a beautiful island!! Beach life!

Beautiful beach. About 2 hours walk from the town. Add some time so you can see the natural river pool nearby the road. It was easier to see the sign on the way home

I can't get enough of this place. It is a heaven where some people lived their hell, but today's day its a full of history, stories, nature and local culture. It takes a short 6-7k hike to get here from Vila do Abraão and around 2 hours. It worth all efforts.

This place rocks, and even more so because the only way is by boat or a long hike! Several hours of walking up and over the hills of Ilha Grande you arrive in two Rivers! A prison where the CV Red Command was created (one of Brazil's most violent gangs second to PCC) You can even visit, take a look inside! There are a few restaurants but watch out because it may take a really long time to get your food, you may end up walking home in the dark (not recommended) head back with at least two hours of sun light! There are multiple abandoned houses and mansions but if you explore you need to be very respectful and careful as the houses are very dilapidated. The beach is a long beautiful and very clean Beach. Since it's on the Oceanside there is less trash and the beach receives less visitors! Go for a swim in the ocean and then take a dip the river, it's so refreshing. It kind of reminds me of jumping in the pool after being in the ocean. TIP/HINT - there are multiple little trails and entrances along the road to Two Rivers. Many of them if you walk for five minutes you'll come across multiple waterfalls, springs and pools. Follow my Instagram, I give tips and travel info! @Experience.Rio

I much preferred Dois Rios than Lopes Mendes beach 🏖! It's not full of tourist and you can even bike 🚲 there! It takes about 45 min to go by bike but beware, do not consider renting a bike (R$40/day) to go there if 1) you're not athletic / in shape. 2) you don't like climbing up hill (it's pretty much 35min up hill and 10min down hill). 3) you don't know how to ride a MTB on a rocky, steepy and slippery path. Nonetheless, if you take a bike 🚲, not only you'll have fun going down but you will also save 2hrs and you will enjoy the beauty of Dois Rios alone in the afternoon when hikers leave the beach to go back to Abraão. Do not miss this beach!

This is an amazing beach, an easy day's walk from Abraão via the road. Very few visitors, and the water and nearby rivers are amazing for swimming. At the west end of the beach, by the entrance of the road, there is a comida caseira that offers delicious meals, the fish caught by the man who lives there, Jetulio. Do yourself a favor and eat there! Best feijao on the whole island, with the sound of the ocean nearby

Superb beach at this paradise known as Ilha Grande. To get to this spot at the island, it's possible to take the walking path or by boat. The walking path is always flat and straightforward, but, despite being very easy, it can take up to 3 hours from Abraão. This is what most people do actually. There is nowhere to eat or to buy water, nor shade from the sun. You are allowed to take anything you wish, but it is prohibited to camp or light fires (not possible to bbq). On the way to the beach of Dois Rios, there is a small village in which some inhabitants of this part of the island live, but none of the houses are open for rentals, nor night stays. So, if planning to stay longer at the beach, beware of the dangers and risks in going down that lane during the night, which will end up in having to walk in total darkness back to Abraão (torches and cell phone lights may be of use), not to mention tiredness and any sort of sickness that may occur. The local villagers are not allowed to help, nor provide any kind of infrastructure to aid in case need arises. I'd say thus enjoy the daylight but be gone before the sunset or within a 3 hour timeframe that's safe to walk back the trail towards the main district in the island (some people may be lucky to find lodgings at the beach of Lopes Mendes or at the Pouso beach, but in the last minute it might be a hard task, as there might not be an actual walking trail to get there - probably only by boat or going around Abraão). I would not rely on cell phones reception either, it's rather rough to find good connection.

Excelent Place. Blue water. Good waves. The best thing is to take a bath into the river to remove the salty water.

Beautiful beach with some big rock formations that you can climb up to and get a good view overlooking both the crystalline water and intact rain forest! Only downside is that there’s a lot of people visiting at the same time so the beach gets kinda overcrowded.

Too many tourist for the small space.

Nice place, nice view

It was among my fave beaches on Ilha Grande!

Amazing little cozy piece of heaven, right here in earth.

(Translated by Google) Small beach but it is worth taking the trail and passing by the waterfall on the way. Medium difficulty and approximate duration 1 hour and a half to the beach. I also recommend going to the beach next door as there are no boats or shops. People with loud speakers and loud music are a bit annoying. (Original) Playa pequeña pero vale la pena hacer la trilha y pasar por la cascada de camino. Dificultad media y duración aproximada 1 hora y media hasta la playa. Recomiendo también ir a la playa al lado que no hay botes ni locales. Un poco molesto la gente con parlantes y música fuerte.

(Translated by Google) A somewhat long and cool trip to the waterfall. But it is a super cozy place with 2 natural pools. And nice nature on the way with another nature pools. Afterwards you can go to the beach in about 20 minutes, where you then have to get a taxiboat back to the city (25 RS per person) mega nice day (Original) En noget lang og sej tur til vandfaldet. Men det er super hyggeligt sted med 2 natur pools. Og flot natur på vejen med en anden natur pools. Bagefter kan du gå til stranden på ca 20 minutter, hvor du så skal have en taxiboat tilbage til byen (25 RS pr person) mega hyggelig dag

(Translated by Google) The place is wonderful The trail is very good to do. However, for those who are not used to it, the climb is a little difficult. But the return to the trail is basically just downhill. (Original) O local e maravilhoso A trilha e muito boa de se fazer. Porém pra quem não está acostumado e um pouco difícil a subida. Mas a volta a trilha e basicamente só descida.

(Translated by Google) It was cool because the trail is considered semi difficult. I didn't find the waterfall interesting, it's more for contemplation than enjoyment, as the well is shallow and full of rocks. The beach is beautiful, but it doesn't compare to Parnaioca, Meros, Dentista, Aventureiro. (Original) Foi legal pela trilha q é considerada semi difícil. Não vi graça na cachoeira, é mais para contemplação do que para curtir, pois o poço é raso e cheio de pedras. A praia é bonita, mas nem se compara a Parnaioca, Meros, Dentista, Aventureiro.

(Translated by Google) Trail of medium difficulty, we went barefoot and without appropriate clothing, being in the woods, I believe it is not recommended... but it was worth getting to the waterfall via the beach, the cold water... (Original) Trilha de dificuldade média, fomos descalços e sem roupa apropriada, sendo uma mata , acredito que não é indicado... mas valeu chegar na cachoeira pela praia , a água gelada...

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful waterfall of around ten meters where you can swim. The walk in the forest is not very long and can be done with children. You can like or rate the comment if it helped or pleased you. Thank you and have a good ride (Original) Très belle cascade d'une dizaine de mètres ou l'on peut se baigner. La ballade en forêt n'est pas très longue et peut etre réalisée avec des enfants. Vous pouvez liker ou noter le commentaire si cela vous a aidé ou plu. Merci et bonne balade

Nice Beach

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, a little piece of heaven, a place with clear and warm waters, ideal for spending a few hours, in fact one of the coziest beaches on Ilha Grande and the best way to get there is by boat where you have several options to rent upon arrival at Vila Do Abram. Have a nice trip 🌴🌤🌊🐟🦋😱 (Original) Lugar lindissimo um pedaçinho do céu um lugar de aguas claras e quentes ideal para passar algumas horas na verdade un das praias mais aconchegante de Ilha Grande e a melhor forma para se chegar e de barco onde vc tem varias opções de alugar na chegada da Vila Do Abrão .

(Translated by Google) Wonderful beach with a family atmosphere, excellent water, and the LEÃO banana boat ride is unique! I went on 24-01-22 on a Monday. I leave 2 negative reservations: 1- it is the lack of education among Brazilians, together with the lack of management by the local executive power, regarding cleaning the sand. 2- It's the persistence of Brazilians in taking their pets to Areia, this is absurd. We all know that sand contamination occurs. I recommend it to everyone. (Original) Praia maravilhosa com ambiente familiar, água excelente, e o passeio de banana boat do LEÃO é ímpar ! Fui dia 24-01-22 numa segunda feira. Deixo 2 ressalvas negativas : 1- é a falta de educação do brasileiro, juntamente com a falta de gerenciamento do poder executivo local , no tocante a limpeza da areia . 2- É a persistência do brasileiro em levar seus pets para a Areia, isso é um absurdo. Todos sabemos que ocorre contaminação da areia. Recomendo para todos.

(Translated by Google) The place is really beautiful... Wonderful beaches... but if you are not staying in Arraial do Cabo, be prepared, as the infrastructure for receiving tourists on the beaches is terrible, on the big beach you won't find a single tap to remove some of the sand, bathrooms, only in the kiosks and the one I went to was .80x,80... And it hadn't been cleaned for about 6 days or so....good food... But nothing is cheap... Paid parking! (Original) O lugar é lindíssimo realmente... Praias maravilhosas...mas se vc não está hospedado em Arraial do Cabo se prepare, pois a infra estrutura para receber o turista nas praias é péssima, na praia grande vc não encontra uma mísera torneira para retirar um pouco da areia, banheiros, só nos quiosques e no que eu fui era ,80x,80... E estava sem limpar a uns 6 dias mais ou menos....comida boa... Mas nada é barato... Estacionamento pago!
