Especially for outsiders, São Paulo gives the impression of a naked metropolis.

Therefore, it is natural that when we talk about tourism in the state, many think about options that large cities offer.

This includes malls, stores, parks, museums and tours that take advantage of urban aesthetics.

But, the truth is that São Paulo is a state that deviates from this description, as it offers several tourism options.

And, one of the main alternatives involves the coast of São Paulo, which is around 500 km long, home to 276 beaches.

Therefore, the cities in this region have varied options, which deliver all the beauty of São Paulo’s nature.

Furthermore, if there is an advantage in choosing the coast of São Paulo, the answer is infrastructure.

This is because most of the beaches in the region enjoy the benefits of having a large metropolis nearby.

This way, you can find good hotels and guesthouses very easily.

Markets, pharmacies, and even shopping malls can also be frequently located in most cities.

So, if you want to enjoy the sea, but without giving up comfort and infrastructure, São Paulo is your place!

We couldn’t start our list with any other place other than Ilhabela.

This is because this is a region on the north coast of São Paulo that is most popular, and is even considered São Paulo's paradise.

This fame is due to the fact that the archipelago is located in the midst of majestic mountains that provide a beautiful view of vegetation.

Ilhabela is an archipelago municipality, located in the São Sebastião region, in São Paulo.

The region has 14 islands, of which the main one, called São Sebastião (or Ilhabela) is approximately 340 km long.

The region's biggest difference is the sea, which provides beautiful colors, amidst the rocks, which are traditional to the region.

It is worth mentioning that Ilhabela is a region that has basic infrastructure, so you will find good inns and some restaurant options.

Furthermore, the climate in Ilhabela is very humid, and the tours require a little effort, as they have nature as their main focus.

But, if you are willing, you will have memorable experiences in beautiful places such as: Praia de Castelhanos, Praia do Bonete and Praia do Jabaquara.

Ubatuba

The city of Ubatuba is one of the most famous when it comes to the São Paulo Coast.

This is because the region has a good number of beaches, which offer a lot of beauty and suitable infrastructure for tours.

It's worth saying that Ubatuba is a big city, but its main focus is beaches.

The city is located in a region close to the tropical forest of the Serra do Mar National Park.

As a result, the local climate is hot and humid, which favors beach adventures.

It is worth mentioning that Ubatuba has 102 beaches, which classifies the city as one of the main ones on the coast of São Paulo.

Therefore, there is no shortage of variety there, so you can find landscapes for all types of taste.

It is important to highlight that Ubatuba is a very well developed city.

Therefore, when investing in this coastal region you will have access to good accommodation, food, transport and healthcare options.

Ubatuba is located approximately 220 km from São Paulo, which takes approximately 3 hours by car.

Juquehy

Juquehy is a region on the north coast of São Paulo ideal for those looking for peace.

This is because this is a region that does not have much focus on commercial development in the region.

Therefore, the most common thing there is to find condominiums, so this is the ideal destination for those who enjoy having a house on the beach.

But, when it comes to the beach, you can be sure that it is absolutely beautiful, and offers beautiful landscapes and a lot of comfort.

The sand at Juquehy is very white, and its strip is wide, which favors activities and sand sports.

When it comes to the sea, it is very calm and clean, which allows even children to swim.

Now talking about food, the region has several stalls and vendors, which helps you guarantee a comfortable day at the beach.

For accommodation, the ideal is to look for seasonal rentals in condominiums in the region.

Bertioga

Like Ubatuba, Bertioga is also one of the main cities on the coast of São Paulo.

This is because the region is home to 6 beaches, and has them as the main source of national tourism.

The most interesting thing about Bertioga is that each of its beaches has a unique look, offering landscapes for all tastes.

Furthermore, it is important to highlight that much of the city's territory has permanent preservation protection.

This ensures that you visit a place with more preserved vegetation and free from depredation.

Of the options we mentioned, Bertioga is the closest to the capital of São Paulo, approximately 116 km away, which totals 2 hours of travel by car.

Therefore, it is not uncommon to find tourists who choose to stay in the capital, and take advantage of the short trip to the beaches of Bertioga.

But, if you prefer, the city has a good choice of hotels and inns, as well as offering a variety of restaurants and shops.

So, if you are looking for a complete destination, Bertioga is a good option for the coast of São Paulo.

So, now that you know the main beaches in the region, take the opportunity to book your next trip and enjoy the beauties of São Paulo!
