Hotels in Costa Verde, Brazil

Costa Verde stretches along Brazil's coast between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, famous for its emerald-green Atlantic Forest and secluded beaches. With a tropical climate, summer (December to March) brings hot, rainy days perfect for hiking the Serra do Mar's trails to waterfalls like Tobogã, while winter (June to September) offers dry, mild weather for surfing at Praia do Rosa or exploring Paraty's colonial streets and its 18th-century gold route. In the rainy season, you can kayak through the calm waters of Saco do Mamanguá, and during dry months, catch a boat tour to Ilha Grande's Lopes Mendes beach.
