Where History Meets the Sea
With its cobblestone streets, colonial architecture, and shimmering coastline, Paraty is one of Brazil’s most enchanting destinations. Tucked between the mountains and the ocean along the Costa Verde in Rio de Janeiro state, this small town feels timeless, rich in history, culture, and natural beauty.
Why Visit?
Paraty is a perfectly preserved colonial gem, once a key port during Brazil’s Gold Route. Its historic center, a national heritage site, is closed to vehicles, allowing you to wander freely among whitewashed buildings, colorful doors, and centuries, old churches that reflect the town’s Portuguese roots.
The Vibe
Paraty is peaceful, poetic, and rich in character. It’s the kind of place where you can lose track of time, sipping a drink by the sea, exploring artisan shops, or listening to live music echo through colonial plazas. Whether you come for the culture, the calm, or the coastal beauty, Paraty will leave you feeling inspired and at ease.
