Beyond Rio · Coastal

Paraty.

Colonial Brazil, frozen in cobblestones.

About the area

UNESCO-protected centro histórico, 65 islands offshore, and the literary festival every July.

Paraty is Brazil's best-preserved colonial port — whitewashed walls, cobbled streets closed to cars, and an inlet protected by mountains and islands.

Our Paraty book is heritage houses inside the historic perimeter and ocean-front retreats out on the Saco do Mamanguá.
