Nice trip - exactly as advertised. Beaches are very crowded and the trails through the forest busy with very slow walking due to the large number of people trying to walk a narrow and steep forest trail in flip flops! The natural swimming pool is nice, with forest down to the rocks, but small and very crowded. Option for the return journey is a boat trip across the bay for an extra R$25. There is a ‘lunch’ at 15:00 at the end of the walk - average food in a beautiful setting, but eye wateringly expensive. My top tip is to take a picnic and eat it on the beach.

Itinerary
On the "Trindade" minibus tour, we will take you to a charming little fishing village. You will visit four beaches and a natural swimming pool called "Caixa dAço." The first stop is at the Cepilho beach, a famous spot for surfers. There you will make a quick stop for photos.
Then the tourists return to the minibus to follow the tour until reach the Outside beach, where the optional lunch can be ordered, so it can be already prepared when returning to this beach. The Outside beach is the start of the guided walk and the end of the tour.
From Fora Beach, a 10-minute easy walking to the beautiful Meio beach, a secluded and calm place with crystal clear waters.
The tour continues with a guided walk of medium level and 50 minutes, passing through beautiful natural clearings and mountain forests. The road also crosses the beautiful beach of Caixa D'aço, arriving finally in the natural pool. At Caixa D'aço you can dive and swim in the crystal clear water as you want. You will enjoy the natural pool for 1 hour, and return by the same trail to the main village of Trindade to relax in the sun and sea. You can also choose to return by boat, by the amount of US$ 4.00 (per person).
When returning from the natural pool of Caixa D'aço, just enjoy the heavenly Outside beach and take a sun bath, walk through the white sand, swim in the sea, get a nice tan and relax to the sound of the waves. You can also walk through the fishing village, with several restaurant options and local craft shops.

We had nine people on the tour - nice and manageable. The first short trek was quite steep but the views were great! The big boulders were remarkable. The trek to the “pool” was very challenging but for a little more money (25brl), you can take a quick boat ride to the pool. Lunch on the beach was excellent but enough to feed a family of four (we were just two). We would have liked to have had more time in Paraty but had to rush to return to our cruise tender.
Wonderfull expérience, accompanied by à very involved guide who shared is knowledge of diversity of the rainforest and all local specificities. Last but not least, lemon juice at caxadaco beach and caipirinha at trindade at the end were a paradise tast. Great expérience
The proximity of the sea being the resort by the sea, and the existence of swimming pools, makes an incredible combination for those who like the water
Paradise place, wonderful beaches on the island of fishermen, very cozy place, beautiful people, beautiful sunrise seems another place nor does it seem to be Brazil. I loved it.
It is a small village. 30 minutes by bus or minibus from Paraty. With incredible beaches that take just over two hours walking from end to end. The middle beach is the most beautiful. There are two interesting trails: a low difficulty one to the natural pools and another of low-medium difficulty to “the swallowing stone”. Pure adrenaline this last experience.
Several people told me that this tour was one of the main and was very good, even on a cloudy day (with sun would be even more beautiful). We went on a Wednesday and it was great, because there was no muvuca. We passed at the end for a stretch of trail of moderate intensity (but it was worth the experience), but there is an option to go by boat, which arrives in 5 minutes at the final destination. All very well guided by guide Everton and Rafael, from Paraty Tours. I made all the tours with this Enterprise and I was calm
Incredible tour, I recommend! Only I was unlucky to be on a day with cloudy, outside that look for the tour day of the week, the weekend is very crowded. I want to thank the tourist guide Mr. Luan of Paraty Tours for excellent reception and hospitality.
It is a rxcellent full day walk , where you can combine hikes or trips along Atlantic mata trails with beautiful beaches of gentle waves and very transparent waters because they are protected between the noses - Golden Brooch, reach with a small boat , to the lagoon, in the middle of the sea, and snorkel The small village has a rustic and quiet Mood with good services Recommendation : try the typical dish "fish with banana " shows !!
I felt very safe taking this walk. Really serious Enterprise. All according to the schedule. Highlighting the guide, very good.
Unforgettable tour, we gave a stretch in the opposite direction too, stunning views, nature giving the best show, a spectacle itself, advice without a doubt.
At the command of Master Eli, on the Native Boat, we know the most beautiful beaches, islands, corners and refuges of Paraty. Unforgettable tour with fair price with various fruit baskets and salads as a compliment. Also, Eli was spectacular with his kindness and sympathy. I recommend this beautiful walk through this beautiful place.
