Paraty-Mirim State Park is a protected area of dense Atlantic rainforest that stretches from the mainland to the coast, encompassing several untouched beaches and hills. Hiking trails lead through the forest, where visitors can spot howler monkeys, toucans, and bromeliads, emerging at isolated beaches like Praia do Sono or Praia da Antigos. The park's centerpiece is the historic Paraty-Mirim village, with its small church and calm cove. Swimming, birdwatching, and picnicking are popular activities in this serene setting.
