Cachoeira dos Frades
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Despite the dirt road, there is place to park. Also, there are many places into the waterfall that you can sit with your family to picnic. Very calm and relaxing place. Excellent to read a book while the water souds clean your mind.

Cachoeira Indiana Jones
Tourist attraction
👍 Googlemaps indicates the route correctly, there is a sign at the end, the road has some tortuous points, but any 1.0 can do it.
There is a small place to park, there you have to be careful with the ravine, it is even better to stop a little earlier. From there, just go down a few meters along a mark...

Adventure sports
👍👍 Beautiful location with beautiful views, ideal for spending time, having a picnic, photographing, relaxing ... Easy access; currently very poorly maintained, with a lot of trash thrown and vandalism, but the place has potential and the wonderful view outweighs the negatives.

Lopes Mendes - Ilha Grande
Public beach
👍👍 This is literally paradise on earth. It's not easily accessible case you have to hike a muddy trail, but the clarity of the water, the tropical backdrop and the super white sand will make you forget all your worries. This beach is definitely one of the best ones in this planet we call home!
