Cachoeira do Prumirim
It is actually a sequence of waterfalls, surrounded by exhuberant rainforest. Easily accessible by a short trail from the Rio-Santos road; check the signs for "Cachoeira de Prumirim". It is possible to swim, but some care, specially with children, is advised.
Itamambuca, access via a sidestreet at Km 34 of BR-101 (15 km north of downtown). Famous beach that hosts international surfing competitions. Like Félix, it is at a condominium complex but has preserved natural surroundings. It is also where the Itamambuca river flows into the sea. The river is not suitable for bathing, but you can make a short boat ride there.
Beautiful beach with thick and red sands, strong waves indicated for surfing, and a small waterpark for children.
