This beach is an absolute paradise! The only way to reach it is by boat or trekking, and I chose to walk. The walk took me less than 10 minutes and the views along the way were absolutely stunning. I was blown away by the beauty of this place. Once I arrived at the beach, I found a seat and enjoyed some delicious food and drinks while looking out at the water. It was truly amazing!

This stunning beach is a sight to behold, with its breathtaking views and crystal-clear waters. However, it's important to note that during high tide, the space may be limited, so it's best to check the time before heading out. On the bright side, there are plenty of options for delicious food and refreshing drinks, as well as opportunities for exciting activities like stand-up paddleboarding and canoeing. Don't miss out on the chance to experience this slice of paradise for yourself!

What a lovely slice of paradise, albeit a bit of a trek to get there. The aqua blue waters were simply divine and perfect for a summertime dip. However, the journey to the beach can be a tad treacherous, so be sure to watch your step. And don't be surprised if you encounter some eager locals trying to make a quick buck off your visit - they'll offer you everything from parking fees to daring escapades. But never fear, the beach is closely monitored by vigilant police and guards to ensure your safety. So pack your sunscreen and get ready for a day of adventure!

This Brazilian beach is a true gem, boasting breathtaking beauty that will leave you in awe. To reach the sandy shores, you'll need to embark on a quick 10-minute hike, but don't let that deter you - the journey itself is a sight to behold. Once you reach the top of the hill, you'll be rewarded with an unforgettable panoramic view. Upon arrival at the beach, you'll find plenty of vendors eager to offer you chairs and umbrellas. Some of these amenities are free, provided you order food or drinks from the vendor, while others come at a cost - but with the added perk of credit towards their food menu. The waters are crystal clear, making it a perfect spot for swimming.
