Restinga de Bertioga State Park

The protected area spans 9,312 hectares of coastal land, containing mangroves, restinga forests, and dense rainforest connected to Serra do Mar State Park.

The state government established the park on December 9, 2010, following extensive studies and a public consultation that gathered over 300 participants.

Archaeological remains of sambaquis, ancient shell mounds found within the park, indicate human settlements dating back approximately 5,000 years.

Visitors must schedule guided tours through local agencies to access the two main trails: Guaratuba Trail at 4,140 meters and Água Trail at 2,700 meters.

The park contains 98 percent of remaining Baixada Santista restinga forest and houses 53 bromeliad species alongside 117 bird species.
