What travelers are saying
- Tércio SantanaSao Paulo, SP2,239 contributionsif you're in ilha bela make sure to visit this amazing beach. it's one of the most beautiful I have ever been to. the calmness, quietness and scenic view are the perfect combination for a great time. the beach is just the entrance to a tiny village, filled with hostels and tiny restaurants amongst private houses. the whole place is amazing and you get there by boat or via a trail (~15K). we were lucky enough to be there on a sunny and hot day. it was just perfect. we'll be back for sure!Written January 9, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Rana SAmman, Jordan27 contributionsFamily friendly with good restaurants. Be careful of mosquitos though. You must use a repellent heavily.Written April 22, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Bud CranorLas Vegas, NV29 contributionsIf you are on Ihlabela, do not miss this amazing little waterfall and its accompanying pools. Nestled in hills above the city, there is a parking lot, shop and staff to help you. While we brought our own bug spray, we really appreciated the amazing mosquito repellent station at the trailhead to help with insects, too. This is easily accessible for those who might be less mobile, and it is a beautiful, fun experience complete with some natural rock slides, refreshing pools, gorgeous scenery and cool little waterfalls. Very glad we went!Written March 12, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Mark TanakaLima, Peru49 contributionsA “must visit” place if you’re in Ilhabela. Forget your cellphone and enjoy a JOMO time relaxing on the beach with a cold caipirinha. There are also a good variety of finger foods in the small restaurants.Written November 14, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- M FreitasSao Paulo, SP19 contributionsThe sea was very calm on the day we went. It's a very nice beach in the South coast of Ilhabela. There are some kiosk, but the best one is at the end of the beach, Restaurante Julião. There is a charge to use their facilities, but it is deductible from the total bill.Written August 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Peter B59 contributionsNice surroundings and friendly people at this public beach - parking is limited but we'll worth the walkWritten January 17, 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Shane FIlhabela, SP91 contributionsThis is a great beach, but you need to bring your own chairs/umbrella/etc. and the access/parking is rather limited so you will likely have a fairly long walk if you are hauling stuff (coolers/chairs/umbrellas). We have a house that is just a few hundred meters from this place (as well as Praia Juliao, which is even a nice beacher) but we usually end-up going to Praia Grande because of the support services.Written November 9, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kellen SSao Leopoldo, RS205 contributionsWe took a cooler, some beers, one speaker and made it a great time.
There is some tables and chairs so you can also do a picnic.Written August 3, 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- PBPGYorkshire, UK8,453 contributionsPretty beach running next to the main road, used to be a mangrove swamp, apparently, then replaced by sugar cane and now just has some palm trees on it.Written December 21, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- midwaytoheavenMidway, UT3,048 contributionsThis was a unique stop on our tour of Ilhabela here at Sino Beach. The real attraction here are the bell ringing rocks that are found here. I have never seen this phenomena of lithophonic rocks, or ringing bell rocks before. Worth seeing for yourself.
BOTTOM LINE: This was a city tour stop for us and it was pretty cool. When you hit the large rocks with a small hand sized rock at the end of the walkway it sounds like the ringing of a bell. Each large bolder sounds different. The beach here is very nice with calm waters. Vendors offer umbrellas, chairs and tables to rent. The water is perfect for families with kids. There is also a nice restaurant located here also. MY RATING: 8/10Written February 25, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
