Latest reviews on Sono's beaches

Itaoca Beach
10 Lorenzo Marini

This place is absolutely stunning! The natural beauty here is well-preserved and vibrant. You'll also find a few traditional caiçara houses in the area.

Cepilho Beach
10 Marco Silva

Trindade's ocean beaches offer a different experience compared to the bay beaches in Paraty. They are ideal for surfing, but can be dangerous for inexperienced swimmers and children. It's important to note that drinking and swimming should never be combined, especially in Trindade. However, if you're a surfer or hiker looking for stunning views, a short trip to Trindade (just 10 miles from Paraty) is a must. The first beaches you'll encounter are Cepilho, Fora, and Rancho. At the end of Middle Beach, a brief hike will take you to Steel Box Beach, which is less crowded and has a fantastic beachside restaurant called Casa Caiçara. However, it's best to visit after returning from the natural pool, which requires a 30-minute hike through a moderately challenging forest trail (proper footwear is recommended). Don't forget to stop by Restaurante Quilombo do Campinho on your way back for a delicious meal.

Antigos Beach
10 Lumina Adventures

This beach can only be reached by trail from Praia do Sono and is quite secluded. There are some creeks that flow into the beach and plenty of shaded areas to relax in. The waves can be quite strong, so I would only recommend it for sunbathing. It's important to note that since it's not a popular spot, swimming can be dangerous without anyone around to help. Additionally, camping is not allowed on the beach as it is part of the Joatinga Reserve.

Cachadaco Beach
10 Evan Rainer

We found this beach to be a tropical paradise with stunning views and tranquil waters. We indulged in some mouth-watering, freshly shucked oysters on the sand and also enjoyed a meal at a restaurant overlooking the water. Overall, this was our favorite beach during our stay in Paraty.

Calhaus Beach
4 Adalio Vittorio

The area is supposedly "sensational," but let's be real, it's just another beach. The locals in Pebbles may seem friendly, but they're probably just trying to sell you overpriced souvenirs. If you're into that kind of thing, then sure, go ahead and visit. But don't forget to "respect" the environment, because apparently that's the only thing worth protecting in this overrated tourist trap.
