Trilha das Sete Praias
A rainforest coastal trail on the southern shore that links seven pristine bays. It is about 10 km in total, climbing over headlands and joining beach to beach.
The Trilha das Sete Praias starts near Praia da Fortaleza in southern Ubatuba and crosses rainforest headlands. It passes through the untouched beaches of Brava da Fortaleza, Costa, Oeste, Grande do Bonete, Deserta, Cedro and Bonete, ending on the side of Praia da Lagoinha. The full route is about 10 km, takes 4 to 6 hours one way, and is of moderate difficulty. The beaches along the way are almost undeveloped, and Grande do Bonete has a small fishing village with simple meals. You can walk just one section and return the same way. Start early in the morning, bring plenty of water, sun protection and insect repellent. In the rainy season the trail gets slippery and muddy, so it's best to go with a companion or hire a local guide.
