O Descobrimento da Ilha Grande foi apenas dois anos após o descobrimento do Brasil, e o local foi palco de varias batalhas e importantes fatos históricos do Brasil. Boa Leitura.... 1/3 < back Discovery of Ilha Grande The region of Angra dos Reis was discovered 5 days after Rio de Janeiro, by the same navigators, by an expedition commanded by Gonçalo Coelho. When they saw from afar the tip of the bell in Marambaia and the tip of Castelhano on the island, they had the same impression as when they arrived in Rio de Janeiro, thinking it was a river mouth, however they realized that it was an island , as soon as they arrived at what is now the center of Angra dos Reis, where you can see the other side of the ocean. Gonçalo arrived in the region on January 6, 1502, the day the Catholic church commemorates the day of Santo Reis Mago, because of the date, they named the place Angra dos Reis. The Big Island got its name because of its size, and the Indians who already lived there also called it that, but in Tupi it was called Ipaum Guaçu . The place was the scene of great battles between the Portuguese and the Tamoios Indians, for resisting the commands of the Portuguese who wanted to enslave them. The Tamoios were great warriors but they were not successful in battles and were exterminated by the Portuguese. These battles lasted from 1554 to 1567. The place was ideal for Portuguese, Spanish, English, French and Dutch navigators, due to its calm waters, being able to dock their boats with tranquility. In 1559, Dom Vicente da Fonseca was sent by the King of Portugal to take possession and administer the site. < Os Indios Colonization >

Japariz Japariz 1/7 < BEACHES japariz beach Praia de Japariz is well known for its restaurants, the beach has several restaurants and all of them with good quality and service fast, normally the order is made from the boat and when the boat arrives, the meal is practically ready. Usually the place is very crowded with several schooners and taxi boats that stop there to serve their customers. The beach can also be accessed by trail, but it ends up being too far from Abraão to walk. The beach has a beautiful view, but there are a lot of boats circulating, a tip we give is when you are waiting for lunch, take a walk to the beach on the side that it's called funil beach, the beach is just 7 minutes from Japariz beach, the place is very cozy and always very quiet, there is a strip of sand and you can walk a lot to the bottom because the beach is very shallow, it is worth knowing. < Parish of Santana Fisherman's Beach >

Enseada das Estrelas Praia do Amor Carmiranga Enseada das Estrelas 1/9 < Beaches STAR COVE Enseada das Estrelas, is full of beaches and beautiful landscapes, the name is given because its waters are so calm at night the sky is reflected in the sea and you can see all the stars. The cove is marked by simple and luxurious restaurants and during holidays and vacations, several famous people usually appear with Reis Magos, Ancoradouro, Coqueiro Verde and Refúgio das Caravelas. On the inside of the Enseada das Estrelas, there is a retreat in the sea called Saco do Céu because it looks like a bag in an aerial photo, and because it reflects the sky at sea. Seguindo da Praia do Barreto em sentido ao Abraão, a primeira praia, é a Praia do Amor, followed by Praia do Saco do Céu, Praia do Castor, Praia de Fora, Praia do Pereque, Praia da Carmiranga, Itaguaçu and Feiticeira. Praia do Amor, is a very small beach that when the tide is dry, its strip of sand disappears and only water for swimming, the water there is not usually very bad for diving, but in the region it is very common to see sea stars (an important warning for anyone who sees a star, it cannot leave the water, which even if it looks alive, it can't stand it out of the water), although it is already extinct because people don't know and take it out of the sea to take pictures. Praia do Saco do Céu is Praia da Vila, it has a lot of shell and mud because it is close to the mangrove, All the beaches around Saco do Céu have dark water because they are surrounded by mangroves, so the attraction of Saco do Céu is its panorama and beautiful landscape. A Praia do Castor, is the beach that surrounds the tip between the Saco do Céu and the cove of stars, to the outside. The beach is so called because it is a private property of the Castor de Andrade family. Praia de Fora, is the first beach facing the outside, and there the water starts to get clear, in the corner of the beach a river flows from the Pereque river waterfall, on the beach outside there is a restaurant that some tour boats usually stop there, if you take some of these tours that stop there in the locality, it is worth visiting the river and taking a fresh water bath. Praia do Pereque, is the beach between Praia de Fora and Praia de Carmiranga, the beach is little visited by boats and tourists, therefore it is a good beach for if you avoid the boat routes, the beach has plenty of shade and is also very close to the Pereque waterfall. Praia da Carmiranga, a beautiful beach with a Bar to enjoy the day there. There is also a river there that you can take a bath in fresh water, but it doesn't flow as much water as the Pereque river, the water there is very clear, and coming from Abraão is the first beach to to get to those who are going to Saco do Céu, the trail takes around 1.30 hs (One and a half hours) and is very easy to access, passing by the witch's waterfall before reaching the beach. Next Beach, Itaguaçu Beach, is a beach that stands out for its beauty, practically a beach that has only one private house, and an extension of almost a kilometer, and on the rocks you can take beautiful pictures. The access on foot to this beach, you have to pay attention when you are almost reaching the beach of carmiranga, which has an entrance on the right side of the trail, which with another 10 minutes of trail you arrive at the beach, but the most common are the people arrive by boat. And the last beach of the cove is Praia da Feiticeira, legend says that there used to be a healer who took care of everyone there, and that everyone knew as feiticeira, still on the edge of the beach has the foundation of a house that is said to have been where she lived. The beach has a short strip of sand, and normally at the end of the day it is the route of boat trips and therefore it gets quite crowded and sometimes having little space in the shade and on the sand, but this usually happens at the end of the day, and for those who go to the Feiticeira waterfall and pass there before 4:30 pm it is usually quite empty and quiet to bathe or snokel. The trail to Praia da Feiticeira takes around an hour and a half to walk, and the entrance is shortly after descending from the witch's waterfall. Feiticeira waterfall takes around 20 minutes from Feiticeira beach. < Barreto Vila do Abraão >

When you go to Lopes Mendes walking, you must go through 3 beaches in the cove, Praia Grande de Palmas Praia dos Mangues and Praia do Pouso where there is the trail to Lopes, with another 20 minutes of walking. Who goes by boat to Lopes Mendes, disembarks at Praia dos Mangues, and has to go acc. -5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ passing through Pouso, and from there you have the option of taking this 15-minute walk that goes to the right side of the beach, or going along the Aroeira path, which takes around 45 minutes and goes straight to the left side of the beach. The Aroeira path is a very pleasant walk, there is no ascent or descent, and it has a beautiful view of nature, I always advise people to do this path. 1/2 Praia Grande de Palmas Praia Grande de Palmas has in a little more than 300 inhabitants, and is a little more than 5555cf. -5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ The place is very quiet and has a beautiful view of the cove, with few bars and restaurants on the beach, the best known is the Morango das Palmas, which is right in the middle of the beach with some lounge chairs to eat on site. The place serves meals, snacks and drinks. On the left side of the beach, it has a privileged view of the sunrise, for those who are willing to walk very early with an hour's walk you can reach beach and watch the sunrise. An important tip, it happens very well at the end of the trail to have people selling Taxi Boat ticket to return to Lopes Mendes and saying that this is the last place you can buy the ticket, but don't fall under the pressure of these sellers, as it is possible to compare the ticket on Pouso beach when you are returning from the beach. 1/2 Praia Brava de Palmas Praia Brava de Palmas, is practically a private beach, has a property called Cabana de Palmas, a very pleasant place open to the public and with a unique look , it has a view of the sunrise. The beach is a tumble beach, and it gets deep fast, to access the beach walking you have to take the same trail that goes to Palmas and instead to go down to the beach, take the trail on the left, and whoever is going by boat should walk to the trail that goes to Abraão and right at the beginning of the trail, take the trail to the right. 1/1 Praia dos Mangues Praia is the beach where the boats that travel to Lopes Mendes stop, the beach is around 500m long and has calm waters, there used to be a hotel that was closed a few years ago, and now has only one small restaurant, Even those who go on foot to Lopes Mendes, have to return there to take the boat back to Abraão.

If you go straight to the right corner of the beach, you can take another trail to Lopes Mendes, which takes around 40 minutes, without much ascent or descent, the trail has a very pleasant view and goes straight to the left side of Praia de Lopes. Those who already know the traditional trail of Lopes Mendes, it is very worthwhile to know this other trail. Em Pouso tem bastante Taxi Boat e quem foi a pé e pretende voltar de barco , you can buy the ticket only on the way back from the beach, even though the vendors say that it would be good to buy it on the way. In Praia do Pouso there is a floating restaurant that serves various types of meals, both seafood and various types of meat and vegetarian meals. Itaoca Itaoca 1/1 Itaoca beach Praia da Itaoca, is the beach that is next to Pouso, a small and nice beach to stay to wait for the departure of the boat that returns to Abraão, in the place there is only one house.

A "private" beach closed to the public by trail, but renting a SUP in Pouso is possible to go paddling to this beach. Very beautiful beach like all the others on the island, and it has only one house. Possible to see her from the boat when going to Lopes Mendes on the tour. 1/2 Arrecife Beach Praia do Arrecife is a beach little visited by tourists, and also very beautiful. It has a private house, but access to the beach is free and very easy to spend the day there. 1/2 < Abraão Cove Casteliano Beach Praia do Casteliano is a beach that is very far from the others in the cove of palmas, from the beach of the landing it takes around an hour and a half of trail, quite closed because there are few people who frequent the place. With very few residents, but an amazing beach, usually the water is very clear, but when the east or northeast wind falls, which are very common in the region , the place gets quite busy.
