Welcome to Ilha Grande, an island retreat where nature shapes daily life and time moves at a slower pace. Largely protected from large-scale development, the island is defined by Atlantic Forest, clear waters and a rugged coastline, offering a strong sense of escape from the mainland.

To experience the authentic character of Ilha Grande, we recommend:

An Island Escape
Ilha Grande is known for its calm atmosphere. With no cars and few roads, the island offers a slower and more relaxed rhythm of life.

Trails Through the Atlantic Forest
A network of well-marked trails connects beaches, villages and viewpoints, leading through dense forest across the island.

Waterfalls
Small waterfalls and natural pools set within the forest provide refreshing stops during walks.

Beaches and Coves
Ilha Grande is dotted with numerous small beaches and sheltered coves, some easily accessible and others reached by boat or forest trails.
