The Península de Maraú, located in the Baía de Camamu, is one of the most beatiful places in Brazil, and it still keeps untouched areas of Mata Atlântica. Barra Grande, the main village in the area, has just about 500 inhabitants and is a real peace and calmness shelter. In the village, you can find good bars and restaurants.
The place still keeps more atractions to those willing to explore the natural beauties: Ilha do Sapinho (Little Frog Island), Ilha do Goió, Cachoeira do Tremembé (Tremembé Falls) and the beautifull Ilha da Pedra Furada, with its amazing natural sculptures.
Barra Grande Beach is plain, with warm and calm waters. In the coast toward the continent, there are little backwaters spots, really flat ones. In the other side, the one toward the sea, you can find nice surfing beaches. Other ones with reefs makes nice natural pools, the best thing to pratice diving.
