Xixová-Japuí State Park, State park and nature reserve in São Vicente, Brazil.
The protected area spans 901 hectares, including 600 hectares of land and 301 hectares of marine territory between Praia Grande and São Vicente municipalities.
The region's European settlement began in 1510, with São Vicente becoming Brazil's first official town in 1532, maintaining agricultural activities until the mid-19th century.
A former tannery from 1914 within the park produced leather of exceptional quality, marking an important period in the industrial development of São Vicente.
Visitors must schedule their visits in advance by contacting the park administration through email or phone, operating Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM.
The park contains dense rainforest, beach vegetation, restinga, and rocky shores, hosting 319 vertebrate species and 312 documented plant species.
