Ilha Grande Holidays

Slightly over 100km from Rio de Janeiro is a beautiful Brazillian island called Ilha Grande, which is Portuguese for “Big Island”. Its name is understandable considering this huge chunk of land takes up 193km square miles. 

There is one particular beach in Ilha Grande that is especially noteworthy. The Lopes Mendes beach was once listed in Vogue Magazine’s top 10 beaches in the world. The shallow water is ideal for surfers and the fine white sand is great for sunbathers. If it’s good enough for Anna Wintour, it must be of a high standard!

Cars are quite a rare sight in Ilha Grande and the area is too big to walk it all, so boating is a good way to get around. Some tours stop at the natural water lagoon where you can float around and snorkel. Others do drop-offs at different beaches along the way. Some even serve up caipirinhas to make your boat ride even more fun!
