Guaratuba, Coastal municipality in Paraná, Brazil
The Guaratuba municipality extends over 1,325 square kilometers of land, containing both urban areas and natural landscapes along the Atlantic Ocean.
In 1765, Portuguese King Dom Jose I ordered the establishment of Guaratuba as a settlement of 200 couples to protect against foreign raids.
The name Guaratuba originates from indigenous language, referring to the red-feathered guará birds that populated the region in large numbers.
Travelers reach Guaratuba through BR-376 highway connecting to Curitiba or PR-412 road linking the coastal municipalities of Paraná.
The municipality contains multiple environmental protection areas, including Boguaçu State Park and sections of preserved Atlantic Forest ecosystems.
