Our island
Ilhabela
Nature, history and ideal winds for enjoying the sea all year round.
A unique archipelago
Preserved nature and a nautical spirit.
With much of its territory protected by Ilhabela State Park, the city brings together Atlantic Forest, beaches, waterfalls and rich biodiversity.
A well-established destination, Ilhabela combines hospitality, gastronomy and cultural life with an internationally recognized nautical tradition.
Brazil’s Sailing Capital
A setting made for sailing.
The currents and winds of the São Sebastião Channel make the island one of Brazil’s leading sailing venues. Its regatta calendar runs throughout the year and reaches its peak during Ilhabela Sailing Week.
Between the channel and the ocean
Every beach reveals
a different island.
From nautical life along the channel to Atlantic Forest beaches on the ocean side, Ilhabela offers landscapes where the sea is part of everyday life.
