Praia de Ponta Negra, Sandy beach in Paraty, Brazil
Praia de Ponta Negra stretches along the coast of Paraty with soft golden sand bordered by mountains and dense Atlantic Forest vegetation.
The beach sits near colonial Paraty, which served as a major port during Brazil's 16th-century gold trade through the Gold Trail to Rio de Janeiro.
Local Caiçara fishing communities maintain their traditional way of life near Praia de Ponta Negra, using small boats and artisanal fishing methods.
Visitors can reach Praia de Ponta Negra through hiking trails or boat rides from Paraty's main harbor, with limited facilities available on site.
The beach offers direct views of multiple small islands scattered across the bay, creating natural swimming pools during low tide.
