It's also a great option for families and for those wishing to escape the busier beaches.

It is one of the main meeting points in the region, gathering residents and visitors for sports, cultural, and leisure activities throughout the day.

With a bustling strip of sand and waters suitable for swimming and sports like surfing and frescobol (beach paddleball), Pitangueiras combines urban vibrancy with the natural charm of the coast.

Stop 5

Here's the English translation for the description of Enseada Beach:

"Our last stop will be at the beautiful Enseada Beach, the longest in Guarujá, with an impressive 5.6 kilometers of fine white sand. Unlike other beaches in the region, its coastline is preserved, with planned urbanization and without tall buildings along most of the coastal strip, which provides an open and charming view, filled with coconut trees that frame the horizon.

This will be a special moment to relax by the sea, walk along the sand, or simply contemplate the landscape. For lunch, you can choose between a typical Brazilian kiosk, with regional dishes and a relaxed atmosphere, or a sophisticated restaurant inside a beachfront hotel, with all the comfort and a panoramic ocean view.

A perfect stop to savor local cuisine and recharge your batteries before the return trip, with the sound of the waves in the background and the natural charm of the São Paulo coast surrounding you.
