Best things to do in Ubatuba

Ubatuba's Absolute Essentials

Ubatuba features over 100 beaches and vast stretches of protected Atlantic Forest within the Serra do Mar State Park. This list highlights the region's diverse landscape, from the natural volcanic rock pools of Praia do Cachadaço to the 19th-century stone structures of Ruínas da Lagoinha. Marine conservation is central to the area, represented by the sea turtle sanctuary at Projeto Tamar and the local biodiversity at the Ubatuba Aquarium. Traditional fishing culture persists in Picinguaba, while secluded spots like Praia da Lagoa offer freshwater lagoons alongside the sea.
