Paraty: What to see in the surroundings?
What our travelers think about their stay
A pretty little colonial town located 240 km south of Rio de Janeiro on the Costa Verde.
My suggestion
Be sure to tour round the fishing village of Trinidad, located around thirty kilometers from Paraty, and take advantage of the exceptional beaches there. It's a wonderful excursion to make, and you won't be disappointed!
Paraty is the "dolce vita" with a Brazilian flavor: charming, tranquil and delightful in all respects.
My suggestion
And the road between Rio de Janeiro and Paraty is wonderful too, though nonetheless very winding: plan to take five to six hours to complete the journey.
A charming, colonial village, Paraty was once a major port for gold leaving Brazil for Europe. Today the village is still worth a detour!
My suggestion
Check out Trindade Beach during your trip to Brazil . At only 15 minutes or so from the center of Paraty, it's the perfect place for a laze and to enjoy warm, clear blue water.
On my trip to Brazil, I was lucky enough to stopover in Parat y , a green, verdant town amid a myriad of islands.
My suggestion
Take the time to see Paraty properly and visit some of the islands around it.
