Ilha do Farol - Alcatrazes
The Alcatrazes archipelago is the most pristine marine area in the state of São Paulo, in part due to the restrictions on use established by the Brazilian Navy (MB) and Esec Tupinambás since the 1980s. After more than 30 years prohibited, scuba diving was again opened to the population in December 2018.
In the Alcatrazes Refugio you will find the largest frigate forest in Latin America. In addition, during navigation you can see dolphins, whales, orcas and other birds.
