This place is absolutely stunning! The natural beauty here is well-preserved and vibrant. You'll also find a few traditional caiçara houses in the area.
This beach can only be reached by trail from Praia do Sono and is quite secluded. There are some creeks that flow into the beach and plenty of shaded areas to relax in. The waves can be quite strong, so I would only recommend it for sunbathing. It's important to note that since it's not a popular spot, swimming can be dangerous without anyone around to help. Additionally, camping is not allowed on the beach as it is part of the Joatinga Reserve.
The charming Calhaus community might be small, but it's already electrifying with power. The beach is a true gem, boasting not one, but two cozy beach bars that only accept cash. The atmosphere is simply delightful, and you can't help but feel a sense of calm as you soak up the sun and listen to the soothing sound of the waves. It's a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the beauty of nature.
What a stunning beach! I decided to take the bus from Paraty's central station to Vila Oratorio, and from there, the hike began. The signs were clear, and after about an hour of walking, I reached Praia do Sono. Although the path was hot and undulating, it was well worth the effort. I must admit that some parts of the trail were slippery, and I was warned to be cautious of snakes, spiders, and scorpions. I even came across a dead snake on the path. I stopped for lunch at the only open restaurant, and it was surprisingly delicious. I suspect that the low season might have something to do with the limited options, but there are plenty of bars and restaurants along the shore during peak season. There are also camping sites available, which is an excellent choice for those who want to stay longer and explore nearby beaches. For the more adventurous, there is a five-night hike, where you camp along the way and bring
This stunning location boasts an incredible beach that truly takes your breath away. I embarked on the trail from Praia do Sono, which spans 3 km from Vila Oratorio to reach this paradise. The trail to Praia de Antigos e Antiguinhos can be found on the left corner of Praia do Sono, and while it is a challenging and slippery climb, the reward is well worth the effort. At its highest point, the trail reaches 700 m, but the view of Antigos makes it all worthwhile. And just beyond Antigos lies Antiguinhos, a small but incredibly beautiful beach with soft sand and tranquil waters. It's truly a sight to behold and an experience that will stay with you forever.
