Praia de Fora has a 100 meters stretch of bright white sand, from where you can see Ilha Grande and Palmas Beach. It’s known as the place to watch the most beautiful sunrise in the region, and in June and July, at dusk and at dawning, you can see the local fishermen use traditional methods to haul in schools of mullet, a regional and seasonal delicacy.
