Its historic centre is one of the best-preserved colonial towns in Brazil, and together with the surrounding Atlantic forest and Ilha Grande it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.\r\n\r\nThe old town is car-free, with large, uneven stones that are hard on the ankles and whitewashed houses with brightly painted doors. At the highest tides, the sea floods some of the streets, as the town was designed to let the water in and wash them out.\r\n\r\nAround the town, the Costa Verde is full of beaches, islands and waterfalls. Boat trips around the bay, a day in the beach village of Trindade, a waterfall swim and a cacha\u00e7a tasting at one of the local distilleries fill three or four days easily.","hw_hub_city_facts":"Language | Portuguese\r\nCurrency | Brazilian real (BRL).

The churches, built separately for different social groups in colonial times, and the small museums tell the town's story.\r\n\r\nThe bay is the main attraction. Schooner trips leave the pier every day for islands and beaches, with stops for swimming and snorkelling, and smaller boats can be hired for private trips. Trindade, around 30km south, is a former fishing village with stunning beaches and a natural pool, the Piscina Natural do Cachada\u00e7o, among the rocks.\r\n\r\nInland, the forest is full of waterfalls. The Cachoeira do Tobog\u00e3 has a natural rock slide, and the Po\u00e7o do Tarzan is a deep pool for swimming. The area has dozens of cacha\u00e7a distilleries, many open for tastings, and the old gold road, the Caminho do Ouro, can be walked with a guide.","hw_hub_city_do_points":"Historic centre | Best early in the morning or at dusk\r\nSchooner trips | Islands and beaches around the bay\r\nTrindade | Beaches and a natural pool among the rocks\r\nWaterfalls | The Tobog\u00e3 rock slide and swimming pools","hw_hub_city_do_tag":"things-to-do","hw_hub_city_do_more":"All things to do in Paraty","hw_hub_city_free_title":"And what it costs nothing to do","hw_hub_city_free_body":"The historic centre is free to wander, and it is the best thing to do in Paraty.

A caipirinha made with local cacha\u00e7a is a must, and gabriela, a cacha\u00e7a with cinnamon and clove, is a local favourite.\r\n\r\nIn the historic centre, prices are higher; walk a few blocks outside for por quilo lunches and simple local restaurants.","hw_hub_city_food_points":"Seafood | At the heart of every menu\r\nCacha\u00e7a | Distillery tastings around town\r\nGabriela | Cacha\u00e7a with cinnamon and clove\r\nOutside the centre | Cheaper lunches","hw_hub_city_food_tag":"food","hw_hub_city_food_more":"All food guides for Paraty","hw_hub_city_nightlife_title":"Going out","hw_hub_city_nightlife_body":"Paraty's nightlife is about bars in the historic centre, where live music, especially MPB and samba, fills the colonial buildings at weekends.\r\n\r\nIn summer and during festivals, the town gets lively.
