Praia do Sancho

The 500-meter stretch of golden sand sits between tall cliffs, with turquoise waters reaching depths of 40 meters for underwater visibility.

The beach exists within Fernando de Noronha Marine National Park, established in 1988 to preserve marine ecosystems and regulate tourism activities.

Local conservation programs monitor sea turtle nesting sites along the beach, contributing to environmental research and marine life protection initiatives.

Access requires descending metal ladders fixed into cliff walls, and visitors must obtain permits from the national park administration before entry.

The waters contain colonies of spinner dolphins, which frequently appear near the shore during morning hours to feed and socialize.
