#### Admire the whitewashed colonial buildings surrounding this enchanting park that overlooks the range of boats and islands in Carioca Bay.

Bandeira Square is a coastal plaza and park located close to Paraty’s historic center. Surrounded by cobbled lanes and quaint buildings with brightly colored doors, the park comprises grassy patches and a range of exotic vegetation. Come here to enjoy some stunning views of the Carioca Bay, which is decorated by a row of colorful boats.

Relax on one of the benches facing the water and consider embarking on a boat tour of the nearby islands. Snap photos of the verdant, undulating terrain of the promontories and islands off the bay. Lay down a blanket for a picnic with your family on a grassy area in the plaza. You can relax beneath the branches of the trees for shady relief on a hot and sunny day.

Stroll along the charming paths that meander through this square to encounter its central monument, consisting of a stone block supporting a cross. Inspect the historic cannons along the coast, pointing outwards toward the water. The buildings surrounding the square have a range of red, green, blue and yellow doors that stand out from their clean, whitewashed façades.

Chat with the friendly locals who come here to walk their dogs. Discover the variety of cafés and shops on the narrow alleys splitting off from the plaza. Try the seafood specialties at one of the many restaurants in the area. On the square’s southeastern side is the Paraty Port, which is flanked by a large row of boats.

Bandeira Square is in the southeastern corner of the historic center of Paraty. A pier branches off from the southeastern side of the square, which flanks the waters of the Carioca Bay. Take the time to visit nearby attractions and landmarks, including Pontal Beach, the Church of Our Lady of the Remedies and the Paraty Museum of Sacred Art.

I liked the accommodation is staffed throughout day and night, and that you can leave your key there if you want to so you don’t need to worry about losing it when going out partying or to the beach. Staff was kind and the area is pretty convenient between beaches in Ipanema & Copabana. They changed towels everyday which I wasn’t expecting and thought was nice.

This hotel was such a gem. My room looked over the atrium so it was super quiet! Right on Copacabana beach with everything within walking distance. The pool had lots of seating and the pool bar had great food and drink options. You can even view Christ the redeemer from the rooftop.
