Praia de Santa Helena

Praia de Santa Helena is a beach in Anchieta with golden sand bordered by almond trees and clear water throughout. A small island is visible from the shore and marks the coastal landscape.

The area grew from a rural setting into a popular travel destination while keeping its natural character intact. This gradual shift shaped the region over time.

Local people celebrate festivities throughout the year with regional music and fresh seafood caught by fishermen in the area. These traditions shape the rhythm of daily life and reflect the community's deep connection to the ocean.

The beach has basic services through a kiosk offering refreshments and is easily reached via the Sun Highway. You can visit at different times of day, with morning and late afternoon being particularly good for exploring.

The nearby island offers snorkeling opportunities where visitors can explore the reef formations and marine life around it. This underwater world appeals especially to those wanting to experience the local ocean ecosystem firsthand.
