The best time to visit Ilha Grande

When is the best time to go to Ilha Grande?


Here are some tips on which time of year is best to visit Ilha Grande,

but the answer will depend on what you want to enjoy.



If you love the sun, heat and excitement, the period from the day after Christmas to Carnival, the summer season is perfect for you.


There's live music in every corner of Vila do Abraão, and there's something for all tastes, from samba and bossa nova to funk; there's no shortage of options for a good nightclub.


The worse inconvenience is that the restaurants are full, the value ​​for accommodation and tours


As the high season finishes, values ​​and the number of people decrease.


Now if you are a nature lover and an ecotourism fan like us, March to mid-December is the right period.


March and April can still enjoy the heat of summer, beautiful days with moderate rainfall.


The winter months are drier, the sky is more than azure blue and the beauty of a starry sky at night.


Great for those who enjoy empty beaches, walking and observing the fauna and flora


In addition, even in winter, during the day, it is hot enough for that invigorating sea bath or waterfall; even I, who have a horror of cold water, take that dip to renew my energies.

(I have a photo to prove : ) )


But the truth is that no matter when, Ilha Grande is a unique place, recognized worldwide for its biodiversity and cultural heritage.


Any time of the year you come to visit us, you certainly won't regret it.


Ilha Grande is always beautiful :)
