beyond the new hubbub of Morro, it's a nice respite for a days walk. DOn't miss Guaruja - a large cove further out.
With low tide it is great to go and watch fishes in the natural pools. With high tide the sea is perfect to play and swim with small children (as you can walk very far into the sea and still have the water coming up only to your knees). From this beach you can do a tour with a horsecar, bringing you to the 5th beach, which was a worthwhile experience! Price charged for the ride up and down is R40.
The best of the 4 beaches in morro São Paulo ! Very romantic, the water is crystal clear and very warm, a lot of Nices places to relax. Enjoy the nature.
This is a very long beach, situated away from the village of Morro de São Paulo and, thus, a very quiet place, plenty of coconut trees, only interrupted by the existing hotels in this area. When the tide is low, the sea becomes just natural salt water pools, great for snorkelling or just for relaxing or playing with kids. At low tide times, one can take a horse-drawn cart ride (local taxies), but at high tide times this transport is not available.Sometimes the beach can be desert, but most hotels allow visitants to use their restaurants and beach services (I recomend the Patachocas Eco Resort services, very welcoming with day visitors).
The 4th beach is worth the small walk over there. Experienced the warmest beach water that I have felt in years. Excellent beach that remains rather unspoled.
It is a beautiful place to relax, to walk, to run or just to be. It is kids friendly mainly because of its many natural pools, lots of small fish on them. There are some bars right at the beginning that serve cold beer, water, soda and some snacks. It is also possible to get on a horse ride and go all the way to the end of this beach and to the 5th beach if you feel like.
If you're in Morro de Sao Paulo, chances are you're staying on 2nd or 3rd beach. 2nd beach can get very crowded, but a 25 minute walk will get you to 4th beach. A lot less people the further you walk, 1/2 price coconut waters, some great snorkeling, beautiful views, and peace and quiet!I wouldn't recommend staying here unless you truly want seclusion, but it's nice to visit. We met some guys staying here and he said that his hotel was not accessible when the tide was up so they had to take a horse taxi which was R$20. They liked the hotel, but didn't like how far they were from the action (young guys after all!).Overall: come for the day if you want to get away from the action for bit. stay here if you don't plan on going into town much and are in Morro more for relaxation.
the best place in morro to stay if you are llokung for peace,. Go to the ntural piscines to see fishes
Beautiful and magical island! Easy and safe to get around. 4 different kind of beaches. Great food and shopping for souvenirs. You could easily lost your time track :) This is the place to relax. When it's raining, have some great quality wine and get some beauty treatments and massage. Great place for honey moon or romantic get away!
Nice crystal warm waters for snorkeling diving there, with nice corals and a lot of sea life diversity and with friends was even more fun, I do go there very often now
