Trindade, Fishing village in Paraty, Brazil
Trindade is a fishing village on the coast between Paraty's historic center and Ubatuba, sitting along multiple coves and bays. Several beaches, hiking trails, and waterfalls dot the area, surrounded by Atlantic Forest.
The area was originally inhabited by the indigenous Carapeba people before becoming part of a gold trade route. Pirates and foreign vessels were drawn to these waters during that era.
The village keeps its traditional roots, blending fishing customs with influences from the 1970s alternative movement that shaped how people live here. These two worlds coexist in daily life and give the place its particular character.
Exploring the different beaches is best done on foot or by boat, as each cove has its own access point. Wear good shoes and arrive early to make the most of tides and daylight.
The natural pools at Cachadaço form protected areas among rocks where you can swim and watch marine life through clear water. These pools are shaped by tidal movements and are best visited at low tide.
