Mangaratiba

Set along Sepetiba Bay on Rio de Janeiro’s Costa Verde, Mangaratiba is a place whose character is shaped by the close meeting of the Serra do Mar and the Atlantic coast. In the 19th century, its port was an important outlet for coffee brought down from the Paraíba Valley, a role reflected in the town’s historic core. The Igreja Matriz de Nossa Senhora da Guia is among the landmarks connecting present-day Mangaratiba with that maritime past. Behind the waterfront, slopes of Atlantic Forest rise toward the Serra do Mar, while the bay leads into the wider island-fringed waters of the Costa Verde.
