Ponta do Alvo

★★★★☆ (633)

Also known as Ponta Grossa do Sitio Forte, because it faces the inlet of Sitio Forte. You dive into the structures of an old pier. Around the tip, there is a prominent point known as Alvo. According to the locals, this structure is a nautical radar reflector.

You can often find sea horses, turtles, sea stars and, like all of Ilha Grande, flying gunnards, salemas, bodiões, marimbas, sergeants, etc.
