Ubatuba, Coastal municipality in São Paulo, Brazil.
Ubatuba extends across 723 square kilometers of coastline, featuring over 100 beaches and preserving 83 percent of its territory within Serra do Mar State Park.
On October 28, 1637, Portuguese settlers established this coastal settlement after signing a peace treaty with the Tupinambá indigenous tribe.
The name derives from Tupi language, combining u'ubá meaning river cane and tyba meaning gathering, reflecting the indigenous heritage of the region.
The municipality connects to major cities through BR-101 highway, with a distance of three hours by car from São Paulo and five hours from Rio de Janeiro.
Scientists have documented 565 different bird species in Ubatuba's territory, demonstrating the rich biodiversity of this Atlantic Forest region.
