Curta caminhada com escada e pequena trilha. Vale muito a pena, pois a vista é deslumbrante! Exitem dois mirantes. À esquerda, consegue-se ver a formação de piscinas naturais próximo ao forte - foto 2... more »

Short walk to stairs and small trail. Is very worthwhile, because the view is stunning! There are two viewpoints. On the left, you can see the formation of natural swimming pools next to the Fort-Photo 2 (worth doing the walk next to the pier, go through the strong and take the low-tide pools-until the first beach. Form "beautiful aquariums!). To the right you have the gazebo where people jump to Zipline to the first Beach-Photo 3. Also beautiful, with views of the 1st and 2nd Beach.

A subida é puxada pois são muitos degraus, chegando no farol não tem apoio, somente mato, mas o por do sol visto de lá é fantástico, proporcionando lindas fotos more »

The ascent is pulled because there are a lot of steps, arriving at the lighthouse has no support, but only the sunset seen from there is fantastic, providing beautiful photos

Farol de Morro de São Paulo, teve sua construção iniciada em 1848 e termino em 1855. Considerado o farol mais moderno de sua época no litoral brasileiro, foi construído com o objetivo de facilitar o acesso a cidade de Valença pois o Morro sempre foi um perigo para os barcos que passavam. Vale a pena a subida dos mais de cem degraus até o topo do Morro. A visão é deslumbrante. Lastimável que um antigo deck para visualizar essa bela paisagem esteja literalmente detonado. Historia e religiosidade Igreja Nossa Senhora da Luz, construída em 1620, também é um importante monumentos histórico que retrata o passado da nossa colonização.Após o portão de ingresso é uma das primeiras construções antigas a ser observada. Mesmo tendo passado por reformas ainda mantém muitas particularidades da sua construção inicial. Vale a pena conhecer, pois há um breve resumo sobre a descoberta de Morro de São Paulo e há também algumas pessoas enterradas no piso da igreja, como era de costume antigamente.

Lighthouse of Morro de São Paulo, had your construction started in 1848 and finish in 1855. Considered the most modern lighthouse of your time on the Brazilian coast, was built with the objective of facilitating access to city of Valencia as the Hill has always been a danger to passing boats. It's worth the climb of more than a hundred steps to the top of the Hill. The view is stunning. Unfortunate that an old deck to show this beautiful landscape is literally detonated. History and religiosity Church Nossa Senhora da Luz, built in 1620, is also an important historic monuments which depicts the past of our colonization. After the ticket is one of the first old buildings to be seen. Even having gone through reforms still retains many particularities of your initial construction. Worth knowing, because there is a short summary about the discovery of Morro de São Paulo and there are also some people buried in the floor of the Church, as was usual in the old days.

Uma das vistas mais belas do Morro de São Paulo. Além da vista maravilhosa para a Baía de Tinharé, pode-se descer de tirolesa direto na primeira praia do Morro, cortando caminho como em um atalho, economizando uns 20 minutos de caminhada.

One of the most beautiful views of Morro de São Paulo. In addition to the wonderful view to the Tinharé Bay, you can zip line down right in the first Beach Morro, cutting path as in a shortcut, saving about 20 minutes ' walk.
