Vulture Stone
Hiking area
👍👍 Going to Embau's guard and not going to the vulture's stone doesn't make any sense. Go early, wear sneakers and take only the essentials. It is worth all the effort, the view is incredible.

Trilha do Morro das Aranhas
Hiking area
👍👍 Relatively short hike for great views. Glad we hit this quick hike one afternoon in Floripa.
A bit tough to access if you're not familiar with the area. Probably best to park at the nearest beach access and wall along the beach enter. Google drive directions take you to a private resort road access...

Pico Top Crown / Lookout
Hiking area
👍👍 What a great hike. If you want to go to the flatiron rocks that jut out with the amazing view then take a right at the top of the hill.
The beach is my favorite with such clear water. You can take a different way back by walking thru the opening near the back of the beach. It’s got a ton of steps bu...

Nature preserve

Guarda do Embaú Beach
Public beach
👍👍 Friendly folks, great weather, surf is up, clean white sand for miles, seagulls and some hawks make it a truly remarkable place to visit. Also, wasn't crowded and the only group of impolite goianos were easy to dodge.

Small beach of Barra
Public beach
👍👍 Access to Prainha da Barra is next to Barra da Lagoa Beach. As its name says, it is very small, it should have about a 50 meters long. There is no structure of bars and restaurants on this beach, as it is really small. To get to her need to go walking across the pedestrian crossing bridge has in Ba...
