Peruíbe Beach (Praia do Peruíbe ou Cibratel)

 
 

Its original name is Peruíbe Beach, but is is widely known also as Cibratel Beach due to the section of the city that was built along the beach in the 60's - 70's. That's a very extensive beach, known by the ancient locals such as the big sea (marzão in Portuguese), because of the view of its vastness from the Indians' Well Beach, located nearby. It stretches from the Cibratel Rocks - that are in fact a landmark showing the limits between the Indians' Well Beach and this one - to the City of Peruíbe where the beach ends.

Its extension is greater than 25 kms, which views are in constant change all along the way as one gets away from Itanhaém, while at the same time the Sea Mountain Range gets farther from the shores around the Seagull Beach (Praia do Gaivota), getting closer to the sea once again near the City of Peruíbe. These mountains are called there (in Peruíbe) as Itatins Mountain Range as they continue their path southwards when they receive another name that is Juréia Mountain Range. They literally seem to fall abruptly into the sea.

There are amazing views of the bluish green of the mountains and the deep blue sea. Other names are given to the beach according to the respective sections of the city located nearby. The panorama is in constant change. Away from Itanhaém, the region unveils its vastness, an immensity of fields and forests spotted by solitary palm tress here and there. This is a solitary place, devoted to the gods sun, sea and sky, when all of them meet each other among an amazing luminosity, inviting the visitor to relax listening to the sea and the tropical birds singing.
