The Beaches of Ubatuba
Big Beach
Easy access along the BR 101 highway, at Km 54.
Beach with white sand and strong waves, it is one of the most frequented and valued beaches in Ubatuba. Our Hotel is located here. The beach has infrastructure consisting of toilets, kiosks, parking and a lifeguard station (Under construction now in summer 2019/2020 - lifeguards however continue to work throughout the beach).
The left corner of the beach, known as Canto do Baguarí, is the surfers' favorite and is also busier (and has a larger stretch of sand). From the left corner you can access Praia do Tenório and Praia Vermelhinha.
The right corner is a little less busy. There, going up a trail that runs alongside the highway, you can access the Mirante da Praia Grande, a place with a beautiful view of Praia Grande itself and also Praia das Toninhas.

Conhecida por suas ondas fortes e cruzadas, é linda de se ver, mas deve ser frequentada apenas por nadadores muito experientes. É uma Praia de Tombo.
Fica do lado esquerdo da Praia do Lázaro.
Nela se localiza a Famosa Gruta que Chora, que tem este nome devido à constante precipitação de água que ocorre em nela.

Sununga Beach
South of Ubatuba, 10km from Coquille.
Just after Saco da Ribeira, it is easily accessible on the left side of Praia do Lázaro. There is the Gruta que Chora, a curious formation, beautiful for photos, whose walls are always pouring water (hence the name).
It has strong waves, especially on days with a swell, which provide a visual spectacle. The waves hit the rocky wall on the right and return, forming cross waves.
It is a Tombo Beach, dangerous, as it gets deep very quickly. It is not a beach for beginner swimmers.
Almada Beach
North of Ubatuba, 44km from Coquille.
To get to this beach, you must head north towards Paraty. Leaving BR 101, there is a winding and narrow road, which is paved, and provides beautiful views of Engenho and Ubatumirim beaches. On the way there or back, stop at Mirante da Chica, where there is a restaurant. It is worth it for the view and the food. In Almada, you will find kiosks and parking - you can spend the day there. From there, you can easily access Engenho beach.
Engenho Beach
Beautiful beach next to Praia da Almada
