Barra do Una, Nature reserve in São Paulo, Brazil.

The Barra do Una reserve spans 1,487 hectares across Peruíbe and Iguape municipalities, featuring coastal waters and the Una do Prelado River mouth.

The protected area emerged from the Juréia-Itatins Ecological Station in 2006, with subsequent legal modifications establishing its current status in 2009.

The reserve houses 45 families who maintain traditional caiçara festivals and practices while supporting local environmental preservation through community associations.

Visitors can access hostels, camping grounds, restaurants, grocery stores, and a marina while participating in activities like hiking, mountain biking, and jeep tours.

The reserve contains the Ilha do Ameixal ecological area, featuring an island upstream of the river mouth with specific environmental protection status.
