Itinerary

Gruta das Encantadas

Gruta de Encantadas is a natural formation accessible via a quiet trail and an access deck with rocks at the end. At low tide it is possible to access the interior of the Cave to see it. It is a place of legends and fantastic stories.

30 minutes
Farol das Conchas

From the disembarkation point to the base of Farol hill it is approx. 40 minutes walking along the trails of Ilha do Mel. From there there are 144 steps to the top. Go at your own pace and enjoy the scenery. From up there you can see Praia do Farol, Praia de Fora and further down, Praia Grande.

30 minutes
Ilha do Mel

Vila do Farol on Ilha do Mel has several restaurants of varying prices and our guide will give you tips on where to have lunch. Lunch is optional and you can choose what you prefer.

1 hour
Farol Beach

Praia do Farol is a peaceful place for swimming on Ilha do Mel. Stay away from the base of the lighthouse due to the current and rocks and make the most of the beach. Here on some days the sea looks like a swimming pool, with few waves and crystal clear water.

1 hour 30 minutes
Fora Beach

The small Praia de Fora is one of the favorites of surfers who live and visit Ilha do Mel. Take the opportunity to explore and enter the sea if you prefer a beach with more waves.

30 minutes
Fortaleza N. S Dos Prazeres

This is an optional location on the tour! If you want, you can rent a bike, walk or take a boat there. It is 5 km along the practically deserted beach to the Fortress, which was built in the 18th century to protect the bay of Paranaguá. The interior has cannons and the well-preserved structure harks back to Brazil's colonial era, when pirates and enemy attacks were a constant threat.

Great trip!

Published on Sep, 2024

My trip was great. Vivian was a great guide. The steps trail to the light house is steep but short and worth the views.

Beautiful Scenic Experience

Published on Aug, 2024

It is so beautiful! Our tour guide Lotar was so friendly and made us feel very taken care of. The island itself (both locations) were gorgeous. There are caves you can check out if the tide is low and the beaches are pristine - no garbage and very few people, during the winter at least. The views from the lighthouse are spectacular though be aware there are a lot of stairs leading up there. Lots of different places to eat. Our guide took us to Mar & Sol which was delicious. You do arrive and leave the island by speed boat which really added to the experience and made for a sort of unique island feel. Definitely recommend!!
