Out of Your Comfort Zone

The art of backpacking & adventures to get out of your comfort zone – tips and advice, the ultimate guide to visiting paraty, brazil.

Last Updated on February 19, 2024 by Talita

If you’re visiting Brazil, then you should add the charming historic coastal city of Paraty to your itinerary! Below, you’ll find everything you need to know for your trip – what to do, how to get there & more  

Paraty City

As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Paraty is a city of natural beauty, history imbued in its cobblestoned streets, and impeccably-preserved architecture from the colonial area. 

Founded in 1667, Paraty was a former economic powerhouse thanks to the more than 250 sugar cane mills that called the city home. It also served as an important stop in the trade route for gold and precious stones in the 18th century. 

The charm of Paraty’s historic center is a perfect contrast to the city’s natural beauty – with many options for environmental and ecological tourism nearby. 

 Have I convinced you to add Paraty to your Brazil itinerary? Then let’s get into all the details!

How to get to Paraty (& how to get around once you’re there)

If you’re coming from Rio, there are many buses that can get you to Paraty in roughly 4 hours. 

There are also many buses between São Paulo and Paraty (which take about 6 hours in total).  

You can see which companies I recommend for buses in my article with the 2 best sites for buying bus tickets in Brazil here. 

The bus station in Paraty is a bit far from the historic center, so if you’re traveling by bus, you may want to stay nearby. Not only is accommodation near the bus station cheaper, but the best beaches in Paraty are outside the city, and you can get to them all easily by bus ! 

Renting a car is another great option – especially since the drive will likely take you along beautiful views and quaint cities on the coast! Depending on where you’re coming from, you can also fly to Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo and then rent a car from there to get to Paraty. 

If you’re interested in renting a car, my article with the 5 best and cheapest websites to rent cars in Brazil should help. 

Once you’re in Paraty, a car really isn’t needed. The city is quite flat, making it the perfect place for long walks. After all, walking is often the best way to get to know a new place! But make sure you don’t walk too fast: the “peanut brittle” cobblestones are quite famous for breaking sandals! 

Beyond this, you should know that cars are NOT allowed in the historic center (which certainly adds to the feeling that you’ve gone back in time as you wander through the streets!). However, a rental car is still a great option to get you there in the first place and explore the area.

When is the best time to visit Paraty?

As with all cities, you’ll see a different side of Paraty depending on which season you visit. 

If you like the heat and a party atmosphere, then visiting during Brazil’s summer months ( December-March ) is perfect. Since this is high season, the city fills up and you’ll find many options for going out. That said, it can also be a more expensive time of the year to travel since hostels and hotels book out.

So if you do choose to come during this time period, you’ll likely need to start planning your trip early. And since the summer can be quite rainy, make sure you keep your eye on the weather forecast to choose the best week for your trip.  

If you’d rather see a calmer and more tranquil side of the city (as well as avoid the heat), visiting between September and October is a great option. During these spring months, the city is much emptier and cheaper. 

And if you’re interested in cultural events, consider visiting between April and June . During Paraty’s fall, there are three annual events that occur: Festa Literária Internacional de Paraty: FLIP (“Paraty International Literary Festival”), Semana Santa (“Holy Week”), and Bourbon Jazz Festival.

What to do in Paraty: 8 activities to do in Paraty

Paraty is a great place to visit because there are activities for everyone . Beyond the beautiful beaches (which I’ll talk more about below), you can also immerse yourself in the culture and participate in unique local activities . So, prepare your packing list for the beach and enjoy!

Historic Center of Paraty

   1. Wander through the UNESCO World Heritage historic center

In the historic center, you’ll find most of Paraty’s restaurants and bars . But beyond this, it’s a stroll to admire the lovely masonic architecture and get lost in its charming neighborhoods. 

One of the most popular spots to visit in the old town is Igreja de Santa Rita (“Santa Rita Church”), where the current Museum of Sacred Art is currently located. This church, constructed in 1722, is the city’s oldest and has an impressive baroque interior. 

The Museum of Sacred Art is open Tuesday to Sunday from 9 AM to noon or 2 PM – 5 PM. I recommend visiting on Tuesdays when entrance is free. Inside the museum, you’ll find works of clay, wood, metal, and silver from the 17th century up until the beginning of the 20th century. Taking pictures is not allowed inside.

   2. Dance to the Roda de Samba da Benção (“Street Samba Band of Benção”)

Every Monday at 8 PM, right in front of the parish church and not far from Igreja de Santa Rita, you’ll spot the wonderful Roda de Samba da Benção. The meeting spot fills up each Monday with people of all kinds – young , old , families, couples, tourists, and more. 

It’s an incredible opportunity to enjoy traditional Brazilian music and appreciate the talent of those in the group. It’s definitely something that shouldn’t be missed during your trip to Paraty!

   3. Have a night out at the bars

In the city center, you’ll find lots of great bars with great music of all kinds – depending on the day of the week, you might find traditional forró, MPB (Popular Brazilian Music), rock, samba…

And don’t think that people just sit and listen from their table. You’re in Rio de Janeiro state! Everyone will be up dancing and enjoying the night out! 

There are two famous bars for anyone who likes to dance (or perhaps just wants to sit outside, drink a beer, and chat with some friends): Sarau Bar and Paraty 33. 

And if you do have a night out, don’t forget to try Paraty’s most typical drink: the famous “Jorge Amado” made with Gabriela Cachaça  (a liquor made from sugarcane and infused with cinnamon and cloves).

   4. Take to the seas with a Paraty boat trip

Jabaquara and Pontal Beaches are located right in Paraty itself. But although the scenery is lovely and they are full of food stands and bars, they may not be the best choice for a day at the beach. Since the sand is very thick and creates something like underwater mud, they aren’t great for swimming. 

Instead, a better option is to enjoy a boat trip to a beach on one of the area’s many islands (or beaches on the mainland that can only be accessed by boat).  

Port of Paraty

After walking through the historic center, you’ll arrive at the city’s port where you’ll find plenty of boats and itineraries to choose from. However, I do recommend deciding which beaches you want to go to before going to the port. 

Praia da Lula (“Squid Beach”), Praia Saco da Velha, and Praia Vermelha (“Red Beach”) are some of the most well-known choices. If you’ve never been to any of them, you certainly won’t regret any of these options! 

Saco de Mamanguá – Paraty

Saco de Mamanguá is another famous area to consider visiting. As somewhat of a tropical “fjord,” the area is known for its pristine nature and clear waters.  

Important note: if you’re visiting Paraty during high season, watch out! The cost of boat trips skyrockets to an average of 100 reais (approximately 20 USD) per person, at the low end. If you can, try speaking to the boat captions and bargain!

   5. Visit the best beaches in Paraty

Although there are some beaches that can only be accessed by sea, Paraty still has more than its share of wonderful beaches that can be accessed by land! 

Whether you’re driving a rental car or going by bus, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from (and we’ll discuss some of those down below). If you’re on a budget, going by bus is a good option since there are many bus routes that will take you all over the region. 

Even in high season, the trips don’t usually take more than 40 minutes even with traffic.

   6. Explore the outdoors at Trinidade village

Located just 35 minutes by car from Paraty, Trinidade is an alternative ecological community with incredible beaches , waterfalls, and hiking trails . And after a day of exploring, the village has plenty of reasonably-priced bars and restaurants for you to choose from. 

If you go by bus, the final bus stop will leave you by a forest with a well-marked trail. If you follow this trail for about 10 minutes, you’ll arrive at Praia do Meio (“Middle Beach”), which is known for its unusual rock formations. 

Praia do Meio, Trindade – Paraty

At the end of Praia do Meio, you’ll find another trail that’ll have you cross and arrive at Caixa D’aço beach (“Steel Box” beach) in about 15 minutes. It’s an easy yet steep trail…but the extra effort is worth it to arrive at an extensive and empty beach.  

At the end of this beach, just past the rocks, you’ll find yet another trail. This trail is a bit more challenging , although it guarantees an incredible immersion in the Atlantic Forest! At this end of this trail, you’ll arrive at Caixa D’aço’s natural pool. 

If you swim in the direction of the largest rocks, you’ll find a stone path that brings you to a dock where the crew who come to the natural pool by boat arrive.

   7. Soak up the sun at Praia do Sono (“Sleepy Beach”) and Laranjeiras

You have a few options for getting to Praia do Sono. By boat is the easiest, yet also the most expensive. It’s quite far from Paraty by boat, so the cost isn’t always reasonable. 

To get there by car or bus, your journey to the beach will begin within the Laranjeiras luxury condominiums (roughly 35 minutes by car from Paraty) . This way, you’ll also be able to visit the lovely Laranjeiras Beach before or after, which I’d highly recommend! 

Laranjeiras Beach is not only stunning…it’s also frequented by the “high society” of Rio de Janeiro and the elite of São Paulo, so you may just see someone famous! 

The trail to Laranjeiras Beach is an easy, lovely walk in the middle of the forest with two waterfalls along the way. 

To go back to Praia do Sono…you can leave your car in the parking lot within the condominium. From there, a free van from the condominium will bring you to the dock that the boats leave from (this costs around 50 reais in high season) or to the trailhead. 

The trip to Praia do Sono from Laranjeiras by boat is quick, taking just 10-15 minutes. The trail can take 1-3 hours depending on how quickly you walk. 

Praia do Sono is a small village, with a population of around 200, who essentially live off tourism. Since access to the area is only possible through several hours on a trail or through a trip on a boat, they truly do live isolated from the rest of society (unlike inhabitants of Trinidade, for example). 

It’s a paradise that you have to see to believe with the local community living in complete peace and harmony with nature .  

If you’d like to swap out the tranquility for some more action, consider coming here a week before or after New Year’s Eve when many young people and parties arrive.

   8. Take advantage of the area’s abundant ecotourism (ropes courses, rafting, kayaking & more!)

Paraty is very well-located for ecotourism thanks to the large number of eco parks and nature preserves in the area. During your visit, you’ll be near 5 parks:  Parque Nacional da Serra da Bocaína (“Serra da Bocaína National Park”), Reserva Ecológica da Joatinga (“Joatinga Ecological Reserve”), APA do Cairuçú (“Cairuçú Preservation Area”), Área de Lazer Paraty-Mirim (“Paraty-Mirim Recreation Area”), and Área de Preservação Ambiental da Baía de Paraty (“Bay of Paraty Environmental Protection Area”).

All of these parks are open to the public so you can enjoy the great outdoors and spot wildlife in their natural habitat. 

And naturally, given the number of parks, you also have many options for activities and adventure sports. But one thing to keep in mind: for extreme sports and more challenging hikes, it’s important to get a good guide or go with a reputable travel agency…as well as make sure you’re covered with a travel insurance policy for adventure sports (like these ones here). 

Here are a few tour companies for adventurous activities in Paraty: 

• Paraty Tour https://www.paratytours.com.br/
• Casa da Aventura https://www.casadaaventura.com/
• Interação Paraty
• Paraty Explorer http://www.paratyexplorer.com.br

And below are some more details about some of the adventurous activities you can take on during your trip to Paraty.

Ropes courses in Paraty

Paraty Spot Adventura is the largest ropes course set in nature in Brazil! How’d you like the chance to explore the Atlantic Forest from above, right in the heart of 10 hectares of protected forest?

Rafting in Paraty

Rafting, or descending down a river with a group on an inflatable boat, is an exciting and adrenaline-pumping activity to do in the Paraty area. But make sure there is good weather before you go ‒ otherwise, conditions can get dangerous. 

Casa de Aventura de Paraty offers rafting.

Kayaking or canoeing in Paraty

Kayaking or canoeing is a great activity for families (especially for small children)…and really anyone else who just wants to spend some time outdoors! 

Although it does take a bit of arm strength, it’s a very calming and relaxing activity. 

Most tour companies in Paraty will offer this activity, but I wanted to shout out to Paraty Explorer since they offer kayaking tours longer than 1 day!   Beyond the ones listed above, there are also many other options for ecotourism in Paraty like mountain biking, Jeep tours, diving , bird watching, and more!

In conclusion…

And that’s it! Hopefully, this article has given you an idea of what you can expect during your trip to Paraty.

Paraty in Brazil: Exotic paradise and jungle adventure

Paraty is located between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo in the middle of the Mata Atlântica: a small tropical paradise with great historical flair! Quite a few on Brazil trip simply get stuck in Paraty. The surrounding area has everything from gorgeous beaches to jungle adventures among waterfalls and mountain streams – and the old town of Paraty is magically beautiful!

Paraty: Relaxation in exotic colonial flair

Nightlife & shopping in paraty, food & drink in paraty, there’s one name you have to remember: jorge amado, waterfalls around paraty, by boat around paraty, overnight stay in paraty, arrival by bus, paraty bus station, buying bus tickets in brazil, where to go from paraty, helpful tips.

Despite tourism, the old town has retained its relaxed character. Time seems to stand still. In the picturesque old town , one feels transported back a hundred years, to the old Brazil under Portuguese colonial rule.

Welcome to my travel blog!

Hey, I’m Tatiana, a German-Brazilian living in Berlin & the author behind The Happy Jetlagger. I’ve been writing about my travels since 2014. In addition to my job as a flight attendant, this blog is my passion project!

Looking for more info about Brazil ? As a half-Brazilian, I’m sure I have some special tips for you: All articles about Brazil

Horse-drawn carriages rumble leisurely over the huge cobblestones (high heels can stay right at home here!) and transport tourists on sightseeing tours today. Almost the entire old town center in Paraty is very well preserved, and since the mid-1950s Paraty has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site .

Many of the formerly neglected houses have been bought and restored by well-heeled Brazilian entrepreneurs and personalities. In one house even the descendant of the last emperor of Brazil, Dom Pedro II, lives in the middle of it and without any pomp.

Tip : Every morning a free walking tour starts at Praça da Matriz, which takes you to all the important places in the old town. (portuguese & english)

In the evening, life comes to the otherwise tranquil old town: stores advertise really nice souvenirs, no two stores are alike, and there are so many handmade, original pieces from plates to hammocks that you can’t get enough of them. Paraty has style, no question.

Livraria das Marés – Small bookstore with selected assortment, many illustrated books about Paraty and Rio, also English-language literature and a cozy café in the backyard. Insider Tip!

Good food and a small cervejinha (beer) must not be missing in Brazil in the evening! Around the Praça da Matriz , the central market square in the old town, you will find many bars and restaurants, but also in the cozy side streets you will find many interesting locations. In most places there is live music every evening, the atmosphere is Brazilian and cheerful – here you can have a good time almost everywhere.

Café Paraty | Very popular, at peak times you have to wait, but the tropical ambience with chilling live music is worth it! Brazilian cuisine. Recommendation: Picanha (beef steak with special cut).

Frida y Diego | Small taqueria with live music in the evening, away from the hustle and bustle of the old town, serving Mexican cuisine.

Sabor da Terra | Down-to-earth self-service restaurant serving delicious Brazilian cuisine. Self-service restaurants are very popular in Brazil and a great way for visitors to Brazil to sample their way through many typical Brazilian dishes.

Manuê Sucos | Actually a juice bar, but is open until evening and has many fresh little things like acaí or pão na chapa (toasted roll with cheese). Good and cheap. Could be the perfect workspace for nomads who want to get some work done on the go – laptops aren’t allowed, though.

For all venues, it is common for a surcharge of R$10-15 (3-4€) per person to be charged for live music (envelope).

For the small appetite, there are plenty of street stalls with a wide variety of dishes from tapioca (pancakes made from cassava flour) to pasteis (deep-fried dumplings). You should stop at one of the many cake carts scattered around the old town: Brazilians are true masters of sweets! Try a cocada (fresh sweetened coconut flakes) or a bolo de tapioca : the snow-white, paste-like mass of cassava flour tastes more like pudding at first, but the sweetened condensed milk freshly poured on top makes the dessert perfect.

You must try a Jorge Amado here, which you can find in every bar! The signature cocktail from Paraty tastes like a sweet caipirinha: Instead of the sugar cane spirit cachaça, the liqueur Gabriela is used, which is spiked with cloves and cinnamon (Cravo e Canela). No coincidence: Jorge Amado is one of the most famous Brazilian authors and his novel “Gabriela like Cinnamon and Cloves” was filmed here in Paraty. You don’t have to like his books – but after five days in Paraty, I was hooked on Jorge Amado!

Here you will find the recipe for Jorge Amado

Excursions around Paraty

But Paraty is so much more than just culture and history: around the city there are so many different excursion possibilities from deepest jungle to lonely islands! During the day, most tourists are therefore around Paraty. I have compiled the most beautiful locations for you here!

In Paraty itself there is a beach, but even more beautiful are the beaches in Trindade ! You can easily go there on your own: From the central bus station (Rodoviária) there is a bus every hour. (One way R$5, about €1.20, paid on the bus, get off at the terminus).

Whether you’re looking for peace and quiet or a party atmosphere, there’s something for everyone in Trindade. At Praia dos Ranchos you will find many bars and restaurants. There you can use umbrellas and chairs if you order something in the surrounding eateries. Here it is typically Brazilian lively with lots of music.

Through a small path you will reach Praia do Meio . Here, eateries and beach vendors are prohibited, as this beach is part of the surrounding nature reserve. The beach is relatively wide and the huge rocks are very impressive.

In the densely forested mountains around Paraty there are plenty of waterfalls. One of them is particularly impressive and is called only Tobogã . In Portuguese it means water slide and on site it becomes clear why: on a huge slippery rock you can plunge down the waterfall like a murderous slide. If that’s too dangerous for you (accidents are not uncommon here), it’s best to just watch the local guys who have already perfected their daredevil stunts – my jaw dropped.

In Poço do Tarzan (Tarzan’s pond) further up, you can enter the water more safely and feel a bit like a bathing Tarzan. Remember, though, that you are in the middle of the jungle: don’t forget mosquito repellent!

Next to the restaurant Vila Verde there is one of the most beautiful swimming spots for guests: Here you can swim in a cool mountain stream away from the hustle and bustle! The water is cold, but crystal clear: pure nature! If you visit the restaurant as part of an excursion, you don’t have to eat anything on site either, but can enjoy nature in a very relaxed way!

The best way to visit these places is with a guided jeep tour ! I recommend Paraty Tours for this, the organization was great, the Landrover jeeps nicer than the competition having to sit in stuffy cars :)

➜ Book the tour to the waterfalls here* .

(Don’t be impressed by the ratings, during our long lunch break we relaxed and floated in the mountain stream and enjoyed our picnic!)

You should not miss a boat trip ! On the one hand you get to know Brazilians on vacation (spoiler: even more exuberant than usual!), on the other hand you see the beautiful islands around Paraty. If you choose a “Passeio de escuna” it is a larger boat, usually with a complete kitchen and bar on board.

➜ Here you can book the boat trip in Paraty* .

Those who arrive early secure the best seats. Food may also be brought, but is not absolutely necessary. The excursion lasts about 4-5 hours, there will be beaches, opportunities for swimming (I love jumping straight from the boat into the water) and lots of music. And of course Jorge Amado !

At the bathing places you can snorkel wonderfully. However, equipment is only available on board for a fee, it’s not great either, so better bring your own if you want to snorkel!

Location is everything in Paraty! The most beautiful place is near the old town center ! There you live idyllic and in the middle of it all. Also at Praia do Pontal , only a few minutes walk from the center, you can stay well and there is still relaxed beach feeling included.

Geko Hostel & Pousada* | at Praia do Pontal, beach in front of the door

Che Lagarto* | Popular hostel chain in South America, convivial atmosphere, also private rooms

Pousada do Principe* | Small Pousada, good location, nice ambience

➜ C ompare here all accommodations in Paraty* .

Outside it is often cheaper, but everything interesting is further away and it is not really pretty in the newer corners. So it’s worth investing a little more!

How do you get to Paraty?

Paraty is located between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, both cities can be reached by intercity bus . Paraty does not have a commercial airport. The trip takes about 4 hours in both directions, and a one-way ticket costs around R$80 (about €20). The buses are comfortable, but often don’t have Wi-Fi or USB charging ports.

The bus station in Paraty is located relatively centrally in the city, many accommodations can also be reached on foot from there. If you have a lot of luggage or need to go further away, just take a cab at the cab stand, it doesn’t cost the earth. Uber does not exist in Paraty (yet).

You can always buy tickets in Brazil directly at the bus stations. It’s best to take care of tickets a bit in advance. Intercity buses are a popular mode of transportation in Brazil and especially for destinations like Paraty, it can get crowded during peak travel season or on weekends.

However, so that you don’t have to go to the train station (in Rio, for example, the Rodoviária/bus station is quite far away from the city center), I recommend buying your tickets online at Clickbus* . If you’re lucky, you might also get an additional discount here!

Clickbus* is the largest ticketing platform in Brazil and you’ll find most bus companies here. (Attention: With some bus companies you have to exchange online tickets again at the counter).

Paraty is a popular destination from Rio de Janeiro . On the way there, you can also make a stopover in the seaside town Angra dos Reis , for example, or cross over to Ilha Grande – a paradise for nature lovers.

• Avoid the peak travel period between Christmas and Carnival: prices rise and hotels will book out quickly!
• Security: Although you should be cautious here as well, Paraty is really very relaxed. At no time did I feel unsafe, rather the opposite.
• Remember to mosquito repellent , if mosquitoes love you like they love me, you are even better off with repellent containing DEET. You can also buy repellent at any pharmacy.
• Paraty is pronounced “Pa-ra-tshi” according to Brazilian Portuguese ;)

Paraty, Brazil: Ultimate Planning Guide

The historic city of Paraty, Brazil in one of the best-preserved examples of a colonial settlement in the country, with wonderful cobblestone streets, Portuguese style architecture and a beautiful setting on the coast.

The city has a wide range of historic sights to see and it’s a great place to visit to see an alternative side of Brazil, away from the beaches and the bustling cities which are found nearby.

That being said, there are some great hiking opportunities here, along with old, refurbished colonial pathways that used to act as the highway for gold being sent back to Europe.

To inspire you to visit this ramshackle colonial city, here’s our guide to traveling to Paraty, Brazil.

Arriving at the Paraty Bus Station 

Paraty has an up to date bus station officially called the Terminal Rodoviário Vereador Agílio Ramos, but everyone locally just calls it the Rodoviaria that connects Paraty to most of the towns along Brazils coastline.

The Paraty bus station is located at Rua Jango Padua St. in Downtown and you can get tickets to over 3,000 destinations in Brazil. It is best to buy your bus tickets at least 2-3 days in advance and always make sure you arrive early. 

From the bus station, it is not difficult to walk to most places within the town.  If you have large luggage or if you are staying far from the terminal then you should take a  taxi.

Taxis are expensive, for areas around the center they charge around R$20 Brazilian Reals regardless of distance, for outer locations in Paraty such as Jabaquara they charge around R$30.

The taxis in Paraty are not metered and you should fix the price in advance. 

Search for Flights: Priceline and Skyscanner offer great deals to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Best Time to Visit Paraty

The city of Paraty can really be visited any time of year, although it’s perhaps best enjoyed outside of high season and public holidays when the streets are quieter.

The city enjoys relatively temperate climatic conditions and you’ll find it warm throughout the year. Summertime can be quite stuffy, between November and March, while the winters are milder.

Most of the rain falls during the summer, but it’s never too intense. Winter is usually the most popular time to visit due to the cooler temperatures.

History of Paraty

No visit to Paraty is complete without immersing yourself in the local history, because this was once one of the most important cities during the Portuguese colonial era.

The city was founded by the Portuguese in 1597 and is named for the local indigenous name for the bay it looks out over.

A colonial backwater for almost a century, Paraty rose to prominence when gold was discovered inland in the late 17th century.

Roads were built to connect the mining sites to nearby Paraty which could then ferry the precious metal to the larger port of Rio de Janeiro, and from there back to Portugal.

When the gold ran dry though, in the 18th century, the city fell into decline and only recently thanks to tourism, and interest in the remarkably well preserved colonial architecture has Paraty found its place on the map again.

Local knowledge is power and our 15 day trip around Brazil with G Adventures was powered by a local guide. 

Getting Around in Paraty

• By Foot — The historic center of Paraty is great for exploring by foot. The city center is closed to cars making walking a traffic-free dream where outside the historic center it can be hard to walk around due to large amounts of traffic. Ditch the flip-flops and wear comfortable shoes as the large cobblestones make walking a little difficult. Walking around at night is safe and it is always best to tell someone where you are going and how long you may be. 
• By Taxi — Taxis in Paraty can be hailed outside of the car-free historic city center. Taxis can be expensive in and around the historical area and they are not metered so you should fix the price in advance.  It is best to ask your hotel to arrange one for you, this can cost less since most of the time they will do it their selves for half the price or they will know of a friend who will. 
• By Rental Car — Car rentals are available from Alugue Brasil Paraty and it is best to book them in advance if you can. 

Best Things to do in Paraty, Brazil

Paraty is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage site and a national historic site within Brazil, and when you arrive you’ll quickly realize that this is most definitely a destination for history buffs but outside the city, there are many great adventures to be had. 

The biggest issue you will have is wishing that you had more time to truly enjoy the beaches and rainforest that you can access from this colonial town!

Below are the best things to do in Paraty.

The Historic Centre

The heart of the city and the real reason for visiting is to explore the beautiful historic center. Dating back to the first decades of Portuguese colonization, this is one of the oldest and best-preserved old towns in the country.

The streets are still paved with cobblestones, making walking around slightly taxing on the ankles, but providing a truly authentic atmosphere.

Many of the old colonial buildings still display their unique Portuguese character, and simply taking in the history as you wander through Paraty is one of the best things to do when you visit.

Our top recommended tours of The Historic Centre:

• Paraty City Sightseeing Tour
• 2-Hour Walking Tour of Historic Paraty, Brazil

The Churches

The churches here are some of the most outstanding sights in the historic center.

There are several to see around the city, with the most ancient having been constructed in the early 1700s at the height of the gold rush, as money flooded in allowing Paraty to build the first stone churches.

The oldest, the Chapel of Saint Rita, dates back to 1722 and is now home to a charming little museum.

The Church of Our Lady of the Rosary and Saint Benedict dates to 1725 and is intriguing as it was built for use by slaves who were transported here from across the ocean in the Atlantic Slave Trade, giving the place a haunting history.

Free Walking City Tour

There’s a great free walking tour offered in Paraty, yes free with a tip at the end. The meeting point is in front of the Igreja da Matriz (Matriz Church), at the historical center.

This tour will last around two hours and is given by a local guide who has lived there their whole life. 

We found this a great way to get to know the city of Paraty on our first day. The local guide will point out things that you will miss by just walking around by your self. 

The free walking tours operate every day but Wednesdays. It starts at 10:30 A.M in Portuguese and 5 P.M. in English. There are no reservations needed, just come and look for the red shirt.

It operates rain or shine and the normal group size is anywhere from 8-15. 

Note: This tour is not as in-depth as the paid tours, so if you are a history buff you should go on a paid history tour also. 

Forte Defensor Perpetuo

Forte Defensor Perpetuo is another great piece of history to explore while you are visiting Paraty. Again, the fort was constructed in the early 1700s as the gold trade was beginning to boom.

The Forte was built because the city needed to defend the lucrative business from the many pirates and raiders that would hide out in the nearby bays and islands along the coast waiting for their chance to strike.

The Portuguese Fort is well preserved, having been rebuilt again in the 19th century. You can walk the ramparts and visit the intriguing history museum that are found within the walls.

They offer a great insight into the colonial history of Paraty and the pirate attacks suffered during the gold era. You can find old cannons and more artifacts too at the fort.

Interestingly, this was just one of seven such forts to be built to defend Paraty, but this is the only one that has survived until today in such a well-preserved state.

The Gold Trail

The Caminho do Ouro or the Gold Trail was a stone-paved road that led from the gold mines in the jungle to the coast at Paraty, where the gold could then be exported.

It was the city’s economic lifeline, and was important to the fledgling economy of colonial Brazil, but suffered from raids and attacks from pirates.

For this reason, the trail eventually fell into disrepair and disuse as it became too dangerous to use, and gold had to find another way through the mountains.

Today, the Gold Trail is an important tourist attraction in Paraty, offering visitors a unique heritage walk that will expose them to the intriguing history of the area.

Our top recommended tours of The Gold Trail:

• Walking the Gold Trail tour
• Birdwatching at Caminho do Ouro ** Great for wildlife lovers ** 

Paraty isn’t just all about the history though, and if you need a break from the ankle grinding cobblestones, then just a short bus ride away from the city can be found the spectacular beachside village of Trindade, which lies between two sheltered bays.

With rainforest on one side and golden beaches and clear, blue water on the other, this is about as paradisaical as it gets in Brazil, and it’s a great opportunity to relax in pristine surroundings.

It takes around an hour to get here from Paraty and you’ll find that many of the beaches are quiet even in high season, with just a few ramshackle restaurants and bars catering to tourists.

You can hike, snorkel or simply do very, very little at all in Trindade.

Our top recommended tours of Trindade:

• Trindade Fishing Village, Beach Trek and Snorkeling Tour from Paraty
• Trindade Village Tour

Paraty Boat Trip

Just a short stroll down the cobblestone streets of the colonial village you will arrive at  Paraty ‘s main harbor where there’s a long dock with brightly colored boats lined up ready to sail away on a daily expedition of one of the most beautiful landscapes on the planet. 

There’s no better way to explore the islands nearby  Paraty  then sipping a  caipirinha  and deciding if that beach is where you should set the anchor. Each boat tour starts around 11 A. M and lasts around four hours.

Keep in mind you are on Island time and that you should book your bout tour in advance, so you can get the best boat of your choice.

There are a few different options of tours that include a large party boat to even private boats. But once again it is best to book in advance. You can also take a roll of the die and see what last-minute boat deals you can find along the dock, but the best boats will be sold out.

One of the most popular tours and the one we did is where you sail around exploring the Bay Islands on a large traditional  Brazilan  boat, that’s just like a huge pirate boat.

I first wasn’t nuts on this because I’ve been on large party boats before but this boat was different.

There was a lot of room and the crowd wasn’t your drink till you throw up kind of crowded. 

We relaxed on board with drinks in hand as we sailed around this spellbinding landscape and when it got to warm we decided to go for a snorkel where we came face to face with some of the most incredible Green Coast’s marine life.

We experienced some of  Paraty ‘s most idyllic islands and beaches covered with tall palms and surrounded by crystal clear water. 

During our tour, we visited Praia de Lula beach, Praia  Vermelha  beach, Praia de Santa Rita beach,  Monitmento  Island and  Comprida  Island. All were as stunning as the next. 

Book a boat cruise to the paradise Islands and beaches of  Paraty  and enjoy the most tropical landscapes in Brazil today!

Snorkeling and Diving

Paraty can also be a beautiful destination for snorkeling and diving, as the large bay that the city is built on is full of beautiful islands and spectacular marine environments.

Many boat tours run out regularly, island hopping from place to place and calling in at secluded, tropical beaches around Paraty where you can jump in the water and snorkel through pristine underwater environments.

Several companies run diving operations from Paraty too, with a wonderful array of dive sites close to the city itself offering the chance for all levels of divers to get out in the water, from shallow dives for beginners by the shore to deeper dives out in the bay.

Don’t leave home without:   Lonely Planet Brazil (Travel Guide)

The beautiful bay and the huge number of hidden islands and beaches also make for perfect snorkeling territory, and you can spend the day paddling slowly from one destination to the next, with few other people in sight.

Kayaking makes for a great way to see the area, with peace and tranquility, as well as a bit of a workout too of course.

Our top recommended Kayak Tours:

Most shops can be found in the center of  Paraty , but there are some great ones along the unpaved road between Party and  Cunha . 

In our three days, we spent exploring  Paraty  we spent at least two hours each day roaming in and out of the handicraft stores.

We found small wooden boats hand-painted in bright colors just like the fishing boats you will find along the coast of Brazil or at the dock in Paraty . 

You will also find some great  cachaca  stores that offer very good quality  cachaca  from  Minas   Gerais  and even some made right in  Paraty . There are also some great art shops where the local artist paintings can only be found here in  Paraty .

Locals love it but be respectful don’t low ball them. Keep in mind five dollars can go a long way for local artists. 

Samba da Benção Street Paraty

The sights and sounds of samba can be heard throughout the country of Brazil and in the city of Party is no exception. Every Monday night the Samba da Bencao takes place in Praca de Matriz (Matriz Square).

This free open-air samba party starts at 8. P.M. and plays till about 11 P.M or whenever the dancing stops. 

We recommend grabbing a bite to eat outside at one of the local restaurants around the square at 6 P.M, then wait till the music and dances start to get going just after 8 P.M. It will get busy with locals and tourist dancing and playing samba music. 

Make sure you have a few small bills ready, It is custom to tip the guys in white to keep them playing. This is not a scam its part of the experience and how they make money.

It is best not to bring bags since as the night goes on it becomes very crowded. 

Samba de Bencao Street Party does not operate in the rain, they may take a quick break if it starts to rain while they are playing but if it’s a rainy day it is best to go find one of the many bars that offer nightly live music.

Carnival in Paraty

Brazil is ever famous for its Carnival celebrations and the city of Paraty is no exception. Carnival is celebrated differently in every town in Brazil. None are the same.

Some towns have towering floats with colorful dancers others come to life with large dancing street dolls and mud-covered people that act more like a circus carnival in the streets. 

Carnival is Paraty is amazing. It’s celebrated throughout the historic center where big dolls, with masks and costumes, dance to the early mourning hours. But that’s not all, There’s a tone of street games for people to play and join in the festivities. 

During the month of February, the city of Paraty offers a complete show agenda that leads up to the big show, the traditional Carnamar. This is where local vessels and fishing boats compete to be the best looking boat.

Paraty Planning Tips

Where to stay in paraty.

With the historical part of the city being the main focal point for visitors, the inner city streets can be crowded and loud at all times.

So while we were at first not thrilled about the location of our  pousada , we learned that it was actually the perfect solution. 

We stayed at  Refron   du  Mar  Pousada   Paraty , located right on the beach and just outside the historical center where we were able to get away from the busy streets when we were done exploring. Everything was within simple walking distance from our pousada .

The downtown no more than 8 minutes away on walking paths, the beach 1 minute away across the sleepy street and restraints 1 minute away. 

This  pousada was very clean with AC and set up like a colonial courtyard with the rooms located just off a large open-air central area. The owners spoke great English and hung out with us travelers talking about their city.

Book your stay today at the Refron   du  Mar  Pousada   Paraty

Note:  It is best to book your accommodation in advance, do not wait till the last minute many of the hotels and hostels only have a few rooms.

How Safe is Paraty?

Paraty is a small town, so naturally, crime isn’t a major problem. Tourists can explore peacefully without risk at all times of the day and night. 

Paraty is one of those cities where everything is based around it’s beating heart, the historic city center. So naturally, around the historic city center, it is safe for tourists to go out exploring at all times of the day and night.

There will be police out on the streets at night just making sure there are no issues.

We found the major walking streets in the historic center well-lit at night but the side streets were not. So always stick to well-lit streets and avoid dark areas.

There were some beggars on the streets asking for money and one ever had a large dispute with one of the restaurants we were eating at over a boat hanging on their wall. Naturally, the beggar was drunk and the restaurant took care of it right away.

A second issue, we even had a few people come up to us in the middle of the Samba da Benção Street party trying to sell us drugs.

Drugs are not permitted in Brazil and we would suggest staying away from them while traveling, those were just two little incidents and I wouldn’t consider them threatening or unsafe. 

However, just like any other city in the world, the best thing is not to leave the populated places, especially at night, because as everywhere in the world there is always the danger of things happening are they are more likely in unpopulated non-tourist areas. 

So that being said outside the historic center it is safe but I would use caution exploring at night. Keep in mind most crimes in Paraty are petty. These crimes include scamming credit cards, stealing bags and ripping off the tourist for a few bucks.

Major crimes that have included tourist were drugs and rape

if you travel to Paraty is to take care of your belongings. It’s always preferable to be in comfortable clothes, without carrying a lot of expensive jewelry and put your papers and money in a safe place that cannot be grabbed away. 

At the end of the day, Partay is a safe place and I would not let the fears of having issues stop you from having a good time. Just be smart about things and you will have no issues.

Travel Tip: Its always best to have a local guide with you who can speak Brazilan Portuguese. 

We use Allianz travel insurance and have since our first trip to Mexico in 2003. They’ve been there for us on our adventures – and many friends and readers – multiple times over! If you want to book with Allianz Travel Insurance,  simply use this link to get their travel insurance !

Responsible Travel Tips For Visiting Paraty

Paraty is one of Brazil’s best kept historical towns, so let’s keep it that way. As travelers, we need to think about the effects we have when we visit historical places like this.

I want fellow travelers to get those chills I got while roaming the 100+-year-old cobblestone streets among the colonial buildings for generations to come. 

If we do not do our part, Paraty will become another one of those historic towns that are loved to death by the tourists who visit. We encourage all travelers to make sustainable choices when traveling and visiting amazing places like this. 

Below are simple responsible travel tips you should live by when visiting Paraty, Brazil:

• Only take photos, never take a piece of history with you.
• Touching old buildings inside and out should be limited. 
• Skip the plastic straw when having a drink or sipping a coconut on the beach or at the local bar. 
• Refill a water bottle instead of buying water in plastic bottles. If you have to buy water, buy a larger jug and refill a water bottle.
• Do not use those plastic shampoo packages in the hotels.
• Turn off the lights and the AC in your hotel room if you are not in it.
• You do not need a new towel every day, reuse your towels to conserve water.
• Conserve water when brushing your teeth or taking a shower.
• If you are going to buy souvenirs, buy locally made products that help support a local artisan.
• Avoid souvenirs that are made from animal products.
• Do not scare the wildlife.
• Do not chase the wildlife for a better Instagram photo.
• Do not feed the wildlife.
• Out of town, stay on the hiking trails.
• Pick up trash as you encounter it on the trail, the beach and wherever.
• Take back everything you bring with you.
• Be respectful to the people who live there, don’t go walking through their yards or homes for that photo, they are not zoo animals.
• Do not interrupt a school as it is going on.
• Do not take photos of kids.
• Do not give money or gifts to kids.
• Ask before you take a photo of a local, do not just snap away.
• Book tours with locals, not tourists who are staying there for a few months squatting and working for an international company. Keep the money local.

Don’t just see the world, make it better. Learn more about responsible-travel by G Adventures .

Ilha Grande vs Paraty

Ilha Grande and Paraty are 100% different cities in Brazil. Yes, both are UNESCO World Heritage sites but each one has its own magic that the other one does not have.

You really should just make time to explore both (and book a tour like The Wonders of Brazil ) because they are so different but I understand sometimes you don’t have time to do that.

So below is our advice based on Ilha Grande vs Paraty and I hope it helps you decided to explore one over the other or both. 

Ilha Grande is one of Brazil’s most tropical islands that is home to some of the best beaches not just in Brazil but in the world. Naturally, this little tropical island has many great adventures to offer like sailing, scuba divings, and hiking.

There’s plenty of wildlife around the island to be found, there’s a few small and I mean small waterfalls and some small historical sites like an old prison. There are no motorized cars allowed on the island.

You will find great restaurants located on the beach where you can watch the sunset. If you are a beach bum or someone looking for some much need RNR Ilha Grande the place for you. Read our extensive guide:  Ilha Grande, Brazil Planning Guide: Paradise Found

Visiting Paraty is like being transported back into time. Paraty is Brazil’s best persevered colonial town that has cobblestone streets and many historic buildings.

Being located on Brazil’s coastline there are some great beaches, good scuba diving, and amazing sailing trips to be had. On top of that, there are some great hiking trails that lead to spectral waterfalls all around the Paraty area.

Grab a drink and one of the many distilleries or enjoy a bite to eat around the historic main square. If you are someone who loves old historic towns with a splash of adventure at your doorsteps Paraty is the place for you. 

Like I said before Ilha Grande and Paraty are so different you really should not choose not to visit one over the other.

We visited them both (on The Wonders of Brazil tour with G Adventures) and I can tell you from experience you will not be disappointed if you do the same. 

Our Brazil Trip 

We explored Brazil with G Adventures on their 15 day Wonders of Brazil Tour and we experienced Brazil the local way, with local guides on this tour. I can truly tell you we would have had the experiences we had on any other tour. 

We started in Rio De Janeiro then went to Ilha Grande, Party, Foz do Iguacu, Bonito, the Pantanal ending back in Rio De Janeiro. Our experienced local CEO guide went way above and beyond our expectations on this trip.

He opened up doors into his country that as experienced travels we did not expect to experience. 

The Wonders of Brazil Tours is one of the best tours offered in Brazil powered by a 100% ripple score. G Adventures Ripple Score is an honest evaluation of how often they use local businesses and services on each tour. There’s no other tour company exploring Brazil doing that!

We experienced this first-hand while on tour with G Adventures in Brazil by using locally owned hotels, locally owned tours and eating at locally-owned restaurants where the money we spent stayed in the communities we visited.

Not only helping them for today but for future generations to come. 

We experienced G-magical moments throughout all of Brazil on this small group trip. We all were strangers at the beginning of this adventure ranging from the age of 23 to 64. Some haven’t traveled very much and others have traveled a lot.

Some wanted pure adventure and others just wanted to sit back and relax. There was a good mix of things to do for everyone on this tour. That’s the magic about taking a G Adventures tour. They give you free time to have your own adventure.

Onward Travel From Paraty

If you are planning your onward travel plans from Paraty we would suggest checking out the island of Ilha Grande and if you have not otherwise head to the city to Sao Paulo.

On your trip, we went right from Paraty to Sao Paulo where we caught a flight to Foz do Iguacu all on the same day on our G Adventures tour. 

• Ilha Grande – If you are searching for Brazil’s most tropical destination, Ilha Grande is it. This remote island has a lot to offer travelers like great hikes, sailing trips, scuba diving and let’s not forget relaxing on Brazil’s best beaches. That’s right Ilha Grande gets voted year after year for having the best beaches in Brazil. It is best to spend 2-3 days in Ilha Grande after that make your way up to Rio De Janeiro. 
• Sao Paulo – Sao Paulo is a city of infinite possibilities, known as the NYC of South America. Being Brazil’s largest city it plays host to an endless amount of adventures, world-class museums, delicious foods, vibrant music scene, great shopping and galleries on a par with any other world city. We would recommend 3-4 days in San Paulo before flying home or flying to Foz do Iguacu.

The Top 10 Things To Do And See In Paraty, Brazil

Paraty is a charming little town in the southern tip of the Rio de Janeiro state. Once a thriving gold port, it is now a popular artist refuge and tourist hotspot, with its Portuguese colonial architect and outstanding natural wonders undoubtedly its key appeals. The region is rich in activities and attractions; be sure to check out these top ten things to do during your stay there.

Wander around the historical center.

A visit to the historical center of Paraty is a must and makes up an important part of the town’s charm and heritage. The Portuguese legacy is etched into the buildings’ architect that preserves the distinct colonial design of white houses with brightly colored door and window frames, and the cobbled streets that connect them. Be sure to spend some time absorbing the sights in the Matriz Square and take a stroll over to the Santa Rita church and its surrounding houses.

Chill on the Beach in Barra do Corumbê

Explore the jabaquara mangroves.

To access the mangroves, you need to cross Jabaquara beach and the only way to do that is by sea, which adds an extra element of adventure to the expedition. The best and most fun way of doing that is by hiring a kayak and rowing over, which gives the chance of getting right up close to the mangroves. Continue through the mangroves until you reach the outstanding Saquinho do Corumbê, which is a small sea bay with crystal-clear waters.

Take a Boat Trip

A boat trip to some of the nearby natural wonders is one of the best activities that Paraty has to offer. The boat tours usually leave the port at 11 a.m. and come back four hours later. It offers the chance to see some of the region’s most beautiful beaches and coves, such as beach Praia da Lula, Praia Vermelha and Praia de Santa Rita. The boats come equipped with snorkeling gear to check out the local marine life, food and drinks, including caipirinhas.

Spend the Day on the Beach of Praia do Cão Morto

The beach of Cão Morto luckily bares no link or resemblance to its unfortunate name which means dead dog in English. The beach itself is stunning with a crescent of soft sand, pristine waters that gently slope back in the shallows for meters and a fringe of dense, rich Atlantic forest stretching out for miles behind the sand. The immense surrounding green gives the impression of a salty lake rather than the sea.

Explore the Stunning Saco do Mamanguá

Saco do Mamanguá is one of Paraty’s most remarkable natural wonders , yet remains hidden from the regular tourist spots. It is like a fjord with a corridor of sea that runs between a series of stunning green peaks. There are also beautiful beaches, mangroves and spellbinding hikes in the surrounding area.

Sample Some Fine Cachaça at the Local Distilleries

Paraty is famous for its locally-made cachaça and this fact is celebrated at the Festival da Pinga, usually held in August. The local distilleries are worth a visit to sample some high-quality cachaça and bring back some bottles as souvenirs. It is possible to hire a jeep tour to the distilleries which also serve to provide a wealth of fascinating information from the local guides.

Visit Praia Grande

Praia Grande is a main hub for fishermen and boats, with a heaving local fish market that trades the freshest catches of the day. From Praia Grande, take the short hike over to Prainha which is the village of the local fishermen and has several unpretentious bars that serve some of the freshest and most delicious seafood in Paraty. Another possibility is to take a boat from Praia Grande to the island, Ilha do Araújo. Here there are small bars, dense forest and secluded beaches waiting to be explored.

Take a Dip in the Waterfalls

Take a tour to the nearby waterfalls which sit in the heart of the surrounding Atlantic jungle. The most popular waterfalls to see are Tarzan, Tobogã, Poços do Penha and Poço das Andorinhas, all which offer stunning visuals and wonderful swimming opportunities under the exotic canopies of the dense jungle. You can take a jeep tour to these waterfalls or hire a bike and cycle there.

Escape to the Graúna Mountain Region

Graúna is a mountainous region just outside Paraty with gorgeous landscapes sprinkled with waterfalls and rural villages. Head over to Le Gite D’Indaiatiba, a bed and breakfast in the heart of the forest that has a restaurant open to the public that serves authentic, delicious French food. Be sure to explore the trails and hikes nearby, and keep a look out for the remarkable local wildlife.

Backed by steep, jungled mountains plunging into an island-studded bay, Paraty enjoys one of Brazil’s most spectacular settings and an exquisitely preserved colonial center, recognized as a National Historic Site since 1966. The town's pedestrianized streets are lined with elegant white buildings adorned with fanciful multihued borders and latticed windows that blend harmoniously with the natural beauty that envelops the town – it's a joy to explore (despite the ankle-twisting irregular cobblestones!)
