There is a lovely little beach tucked away on Frade Island in Vitória, Espírito Santo, Brazil. The water is clean and peaceful, making it a great spot to visit. I recommend going in the late afternoon to avoid the crowds in the summer. The beach is surrounded by beautiful rock formations, perfect for swimming, relaxing, or even jumping into the sea if you're feeling adventurous. The water may be a bit chilly, but it's still enjoyable.
