Perequê

What makes it special

• Praia do Perequê is about 820 metres long, lined with coconut palms and windy for much of the year, which suits sailing, kitesurfing and windsurfing, and its calm water also allows kayaking, outrigger canoeing and stand-up paddle.
• The beachfront has bars, kiosks, restaurants and public parking, and a cycle path runs the whole length of the shore to a pier with a lookout where people watch the sunset, according to the official tourism site.
• People play football, volleyball and even rugby on the sand, and there is a children's playground on the grass (Turismo Ilhabela); the Melhores Destinos guide also mentions a promenade, sports courts and plenty of shade trees.
• The City Hall is on Rua Prefeito Mariano Procópio de Araújo Carvalho in Perequê, and the beach is about 3 km from the ferry, served by bus lines (Melhores Destinos).

What to weigh

• A 2024 UNICAMP study, based on CPRM susceptibility maps, found that 76.6% of Perequê's built-up area lies in flood-susceptible zones, 53.83% in high susceptibility; it is worth checking the plot's history and the street's drainage. The Civil Defence Contingency Plan (June 2026) states that the municipality's official risk mapping is still being prepared.
• In 2021 the city opened a tender to study widening several beaches and named Perequê as the priority, because the sea has been reaching parts of the urban grid and water has destroyed cycle paths and reached houses; we found no public information on whether the work was carried out.
• It is a busy area: the beachfront is described as lively day and night, which matters for anyone looking for quiet.
• As everywhere on the island, access depends on the ferry: SEMIL lists a 30-minute wait, but in January 2023 queues reached 3.5 to 5 hours due to bad weather and ferries under repair.

Who it suits

Arvita’s reading, based on the facts above.

• Families and year-round residents who want shops, public services and a beach with facilities within walking or cycling distance.
• Sailors, kitesurfers, windsurfers and paddlers who want the water a few steps from home.
• Buyers planning holiday rentals who value a central location between the ferry and the Vila.
