Ilha Grande (Big Island) lives up to its name: it is the largest of the coast of Rio de Janeiro. It has 192 km² of lush vegetation typical of the Atlantic Forest, guarded by the Tamoios Environmental Protection Area and other three conservation units: the Aventureiro Marine State Park, the Ilha Grande State Park and the Praia do Sul Biological Reserve.
The next day, visit Cachoeira da Feiticeira, which is the most beautiful of the place. A 1h30 walk leads to the waterfall which, with its swimming holes and rock slide, appeals to all audiences.
Keep going until arriving at Praia da Feiticeira, where you can take a boat-taxi (there are no cars on the island) towards the Lopes Mendes Beach. Rustic and with clean waters, it was chosen by the English newspaper The Guardian as one of the 10 most beautiful in Brazil. It’s great for both surfing and swimming with children, where the water is shallower.
In the evening, make sure to take a walk around the charming little village of Abraão, where most of the hotels, inns and restaurants are located.
