It is a bit difficult to get to as no cars are allowed into the Condo, but if you park on the main road and walk into the area you won't be dissappointed, the beach is beautiful and worth the hike!

The best waterfalls to visit are definately these ones. The hike can be steep but it is well worth it. Just don't forget your insect repellent as the mosquitoes are a nightmare!

If you really want to explore historical places Paraty is worth the drive. It does take 3 hours to drive but you will not be disappointed. It is in the state of Rio De Janerio and it is steeped in history. I would recommend staying overnight here to experience the town fully.

Consigli per viaggiatori

Cosa portare

Make sure you pack plently of sun cream!

It does get very hot here, even during the winter months the sun can get quite strong. Bring sun cream, hat and flip flops!
Cosa portare

Make sure you bring insect repellent!

As the chalet is close to the Atlantic forest, mosquitoes will be around just looking for a feast! Please bring it with you as it is more expensive to buy here.
