North Coast, Administrative region in São Paulo, Brazil.

The North Coast is a landscape region in São Paulo state that spans between coastlines and mountain chains. This area combines beaches with Atlantic rainforest and creates a natural passage between São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

The region grew into an important economic hub during the 19th century coffee boom. It served as a link between coastal ports and farming areas inland.

The region preserves indigenous heritage sites alongside Portuguese colonial architecture, while modern cities showcase aerospace technology development centers.

Access to the region is through the Presidente Dutra highway connecting São Paulo to Rio de Janeiro with regular bus services between towns. Visitors can move between the coastal areas and mountain zones without difficulty.

The Serra do Mar State Park divides the region into two distinct areas: the coastal zone and the Paraíba Valley. This separation has given each zone its own climate patterns and ecosystems.
