Praia das Neves, Beach in the municipality of Presidente Kennedy/ES, which borders the state of Rio de Janeiro. It stands out as the largest mangrove by extension in Brazil, with three hundred hectares surrounded by Atlantic Forest and Restinga.
Praia das Neves is a beach spanning roughly 8 kilometers along the Atlantic coast, characterized by golden sand and shallow clear waters suitable for swimming. The shoreline remains relatively undeveloped with few structures along its length.
The beach became part of Presidente Kennedy municipality in 1963 when the region separated from Itapemirim, initiating a new phase of local development. This administrative change shaped how the coastal area would grow.
Fishermen work at this beach and sell their catch to regional restaurants, keeping the local maritime tradition alive today.
The beach sits roughly 162 kilometers from Vitória and 27 kilometers from Presidente Kennedy town center, so bring essential supplies when visiting. Services and facilities along the shore are limited, especially in more remote areas.
This location borders one of Brazil's largest mangrove reserves at roughly 300 hectares, surrounded by Atlantic Forest and coastal vegetation. The ecosystem offers visitors a rare glimpse of untouched coastal nature.
