What makes it special
- The Costão de Itapecerica, the rocky shore, is one of the main whale-watching spots for boat trips, visited by humpback whales, Atlantic spotted dolphins and bottlenose dolphins (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- There is a bus stop on the avenue, next to the former municipal school building, where the city cleared the verges in October 2025 (Prefeitura de Ilhabela). In 2023, a communal waste bin was installed in front of the school for residents of hard-to-reach spots (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- In March 2020, the city announced upgrades to public rights of way in the south, two of them in Itapecerica, with the schedule set by residents (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
What to weigh
- The road runs along the foot of a slope: in February 2022 there were two landslides on the avenue in Itapecerica, one of them 7 by 40 metres (Prefeitura de Ilhabela), in December 2022 falling rocks closed half the road at km 20 (Prefeitura de Ilhabela), and in the windstorm of August 2025 the neighbourhood was among the hardest hit by falling trees (Prefeitura de Ilhabela). Have the lot assessed.
- In August 2020 the city announced the handover of the new building of the E.M. Luiza Aparecida de Souza Tangerino, an early-years school of 970 m² with room for up to 200 children (Prefeitura de Ilhabela), and the school was still hosting activities in November 2022 (Prefeitura de Ilhabela), but by October 2025 the city was calling it the “former” school (Prefeitura de Ilhabela), and it is not on the Education Department's current list of schools (Prefeitura de Ilhabela). Families with young children should confirm which nursery or school would serve them.
- In 2019, the city said the second phase of the southern sewage network would serve São Pedro and Ponta da Sela (Prefeitura de Ilhabela). Ask Sabesp whether the property's stretch has a sewer connection.
Who it suits

- People who want to live near the end of the southern road and don't mind the drive to the town centre and the ferry.
- Sea lovers who want to be close to one of the whale and dolphin watching spots.
- Buyers who will take their time inspecting the slope, the access and the services on the lot.
