What makes it special
- The Caminho ao Mar is named after Seu Ciro, a local fisherman who spent 65 years in artisanal fishing, and was opened as a space honouring caiçara culture and a spot for watching whales and dolphins (Prefeitura de Ilhabela); the city describes it as easy to reach, with a view of the channel, good for families (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- The remains of the Velasquez lie among the rocks and are one of the most popular dive spots (Prefeitura de Ilhabela); at low tide they are partly visible (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- In 2014, the city paved Rua do Ipê to give access to a new sports court, then under construction (Prefeitura de Ilhabela), and in 2017 it handed over the refurbished Taubaté court (Prefeitura de Ilhabela). In 2019, Taubaté hosted concerts for the city's anniversary celebrations (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
What to weigh
- In October 2026, the roof of the community court collapsed when a tree fell in strong winds, and Civil Defence cordoned off the site, including closing access to the street (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- The Rodamonte housing núcleo, 50 lots woven into Taubaté's street grid, is going through land regularisation; the second phase, begun in May 2026, only went ahead after retaining works such as retaining walls, built because of heavy rain in the area (Prefeitura de Ilhabela). Check the registry record and the slope of the lot.
Who it suits
Arvita’s reading, based on the facts above.
- People who dive or like watching whales and dolphins from the shore.
- People who want to live at the far south of the island, in a neighbourhood with caiçara roots and artisanal fishing.
- Buyers who will check the paperwork and the lot carefully before closing.
