    Simple and quiet beach, it is surrounded by large rocks and preserved native forest. It's small and cozy, great for those looking for a good place to rest. With a good strip of golden sand, it has calm and transparent waters. As it is a small beach, tourists who pass by boat hardly notice the place. It is a great option to relax and take a delicious bath in the sea.

    Parish of Santana is a peninsula located in Ilha Grande, coast of Rio de Janeiro, composed of 4 beaches: Freguesia, Baleia, Grumixama and Freguesia do Sul and it was there that the settlement of Ilha Grande itself began. The beach was quite inhabited in the past, but little nowadays (it is estimated that there are only 50 residents in the place, today a tourist spot), but we find remnants of the occupation in the place, such as the Church of Santana, built in 1843, considered the most important monument Ilha Grande, as well as an abandoned cemetery and several mansions, slave quarters and underground water channels. Freguesia de Santana is a private property, that is, its visitation is restricted to the sands of the beach, the area close to the churches and the trails in the region. Source: Ilha Grande

    Lagoa Verde is a corner of shallow, calm, typically green waters and is one of the highlights of the northwest coast of Ilha Grande, very close to the Enseada de Araçatiba. Lagoa Verde is also a tourist nickname, like Lagoa Azul, the geographical name is Ilha da Longa. With the tide at normal or high level, the islet is separated from Ilha Grande, and when the tide is very low, they are joined by a narrow strip of sand and rocks. It is one of the few places on the planet where greenish corals are found, hence the name. The marine fauna surprises us from out of the water, in a spectacle due to the shallow depth of its transparent and calm waters.

    Lagoa Azul is a natural pool with a sandy bottom, some rocks and predominantly blue water, located between two islets in the important historic region of Freguesia de Santana. The site is a geographic aggregate of Ilha dos Macacos, whose northern end is the point on Ilha Grande that is closest to the mainland. The region is beautiful with places worthy of being called paradise. It is very close to other sensational beaches, Grumixama, Baleia, Freguesia Sul and Norte. Lagoa Azul, a tourist nickname inspired by the classic movie from the 80s with actress Brooke Shieldes, is one of the most popular tourist spots on Ilha Grande.
