The island, which is 193 km2 in area, is now a hugely popular tourist destination that is noted for its scenic beauty, unspoilt beaches, luxuriant tropical vegetation and rugged landscape. Most of its territory is within the Ilha Grande State Park. The remainder of the island is subject to stringent development restrictions. Ilha Grande is one of the most pristine remnants of Brazil's Atlantic rainforest making it one of the richest ecosystems in the world. As a hotspot for biodiversity and conservation, it holds some of the largest remaining populations of many endangered species, including the red-ruffed fruit crow, the brown howler monkey, the maned sloth, the red-browed Amazon parrot, and the broad-snouted caiman. The seas around the island, which are also protected, feature a unique convergence of tropical, subtropical, and temperate-zone marine life, and may be the only waters in the world where it is possible to see corals and tropical fish along with Magellanic penguins and Southern Right whales. Tourism
The Island is famous for its nature reserves, beaches and its strong environmental mindset: there are no large hotels, no buildings with more than 2 stories, abundant Atlantic rain forest protected by a National Reserve. Small-scale ecotourism is encouraged on the Island. Although it has no sealed roads and motorised vehicles are banned, the island has more than 150 km (93 miles) of hiking trails connecting all the coastal villages and hamlets. Lodgings are available near many of the Island's 100 unspoilt beaches. One of the most popular activities for visitors is to trek to spectacular Lopes Mendes surf beach, about a two hour hike from Abraão. Travel companies offer sight-seeing trips to the Island's various beaches, mountains trails and waterfalls. Other popular activities are trekking, kayaking, sailing, snorkelling and scuba diving. Most of the visitor facilities and the Park Headquarters are located in the Village of Abraão. The village can be reached from the mainland by local ferries and fast zodiac speedboats.
