OUR FAVOURITE THINGS TO DO IN PARATY

FAZENDA BANAL

A different type of excursion.  Five minutes outside the town, following the old gold trail is a 17th Century hacienda (ranch) containing; waterfalls for swimming, bird watching and an ancient cachaca distillery – a sugarcane wine made from different flavours

SCHOONER TRIP

If having your own boat is not for you, or, as an excellent way of finding out where the best spots are, the schooner leaves the harbour twice daily for trips around the bay, stopping off at a selection of beaches.  This is also a very good orientation trip

BOAT HIRE

The town’s harbour has boats for private hire.  You will need to haggle to get the right price.  Once done, the boat will take to you one of the many beaches in the area.  Some have small fish restaurants on whilst others are totally empty.  The best beaches to visit are Praia do Forte and Praia do Jabaquara
