    Bertioga was initially populated by Native Brazilians of the Tupinambá and Tupiniquim tribes. The region is the scenario of the controversial book True Story and Description of a Country of Wild, Naked, Grim, Man-eating People in the New World written by the German mariner Hans Staden.

    In 1532, Portuguese settlers founded there the oldest fortress of [wiki=42537f0fb56e31e20ab9c2305752087d]Brazil[/wiki] - Forte São João de Bertioga, which has been definitively completed only in 1702, and is until nowadays the most important landmark of the town.

    Bertioga remained as a suburb and later as a district of Santos until 1991, when it became a separate municipality. Bertioga is obviously less famous than its neighboring coastal towns - Guarujá and [wiki=f2bdf5ee5613490219ecf0c2730cddc9]São Sebastião[/wiki], and despite being now a "city on its own", it retains the feel of a collection of coastal suburbs (even downtown looks like an ordinary suburb). However, Bertioga is still an important local tourism destination of the [wiki=237e2ef3227372659545cea4cc008324]São Paulo state[/wiki], with many Paulistas keeping summer vacation houses in the town.

    • By bus

      From São Paulo, there are two buses that go to Bertioga. One, operated by [url=http://www.viacaoultra.com.br/]Viação Ultra[/url] goes to Downtown (Enseada beach), takes 1:30 hour, and departs from the Jabaquara intercity bus terminal. The other one, operated by [url=http://www.passaromarron.com.br/]Litorânea[/url], goes to Riviera (São Lourenço beach), takes 3:05 hours, and departs from the Tietê intercity bus terminal. Both cost about the same price.

    • By car

      Coming from São Paulo, there are two routes of access.
      * Take SP-150 (Anchieta) or SP-160 (Imigrantes). At [wiki=d282dc70106b540025488d3927b6ddb8]Cubatão[/wiki], follow the signs to go to [wiki=eacc027ac1b1fc9afcf317f40c365e69]Bertioga[/wiki], north via BR-101 (Rio-Santos).
      * Take SP-070 (Trabalhadores/Ayrton Senna) and go to [wiki=b6c70dc3c135eefe91dc7852cee68443]Mogi das Cruzes[/wiki], then take SP-098 (Mogi-Bertioga) to [wiki=eacc027ac1b1fc9afcf317f40c365e69]Bertioga[/wiki]. This path is somewhat more complicated as you need to find your way through Mogi das Cruzes.

  • filter_dramaGet around
    • By bus

      Public buses are operated by [url=http://www.viacaobertioga.com.br/home.asp]Viação Bertioga[/url] and connect downtown (where the intercity bus terminal is located) with the Indaía, Riviera and Boracéia neighborhoods. Note that the Enseada beach is located at downtown and Indaiá, and the São Lourenço beach at Riviera. Since public buses are intended for locals, not for tourists, they are less frequent on weekends.

    • By car

      A car is the most convenient way to access quieter beaches like Guaratuba and Itaguaré. It is easy to get around Bertioga by taking the Rio-Santos road (BR-101).

    • By bicycle

      Av. Anchieta, that runs in parallel with the Enseada beach, has a cycleway on most of its extension, making it easy to go by bicycle from downtown to Indaiá, and even reach the west side of the São Lourenço beach.

    Rio Silveira is an indigenous village close to the Boracéia beach, an heritage of Bertioga's Native Brazilian past. The village is inhabited by about 400 Native Brazilians and can be visited under appointment.
    * Itatinga is a village built in the beginning of the XX century around the hydro-electrical power of the same name, which functions until nowadays. The ride to the village is an attraction by itself, as it includes a ferry boat crossing of the Itapanhaú river and a 7-km ride on an old tram. After seeing the historical houses, it is possible to take one of the trekking routes and enjoy the nature of Serra do Mar. Visiting is only possible through tourism agencies like Seivatur[http://www.seiva.tur.br/home/index.php?pag=historica.php].
    * The oldest fortress of Brazil, constructed by Portuguese settlers to defend the Bertioga channel from both Native Brazilians and French pirates. Contains expositions of XVI century weapons and indigenous culture and artifacts, including drawings made by Hans Staden.
    • Beaches

      The beaches of Bertioga are similar to each other, differing only by their surroundings. They are mostly long in extension and broad in width. They have flat and somewhat hard sands.

      * Bertioga's most famous and affluent beach, surrounded by palm trees, upper class appartments (the Riviera neighborhood) and having good tourist infrastructure. Good for both surfing and swimming, but the sea can get violent sometimes. A bit like the more famous Maresias beach in [wiki=f2bdf5ee5613490219ecf0c2730cddc9]São Sebastião[/wiki], it attracts younger crowds and has expressive nightlife.
      * Long beach with 12 km, it is polluted in the west side (at downtown) but clean in the east side (at Indaiá).
      * Long and quiet beach, with few houses and a lot of forest around. Not much infrastructure either.
      * More crowded than Guaratuba due to the presence of a large gated community nearby. It contains some kiosks and camping facilities.
      * Semidesert beach completely surrounded by preserved rainforest. It attracts surfers due to its strong waves. It can be accessed by car or by walking from the east of the São Lourenço beach.

    The flat sands of Bertioga's beaches make them perfect for jogging, playing football, and bringing small children to play close to the water
    * On surfing, Bertioga isn't on par with São Sebastião or [wiki=6d50217bfaf5f3d37b9b4012f4a44af0]Ubatuba[/wiki], but it sometimes hosts regional competitions. The best waves can be found at Itaguaré and São Lourenço (close to the the pier and on the left corner). For beginners, a number of surf schools can also be found in the town.
    * In the Itaguaré and Jaguareguava rivers, it is possible to practice rowing or simply do a boat ride. In the rivers you can find mangroves and natural swimming pools.

    Bertioga has a relatively small range of lodging options, as most of its visitors have vacation houses in the town. If you plan to stay more than one weekend, it is definitely worth considering renting a house or apartment instead of staying in a hotel or B&B. Renting a house with a swimming pool in Bertioga may be cheaper than staying at a 4- or 5-star hotel in Guarujá!
    *Hotel with flat-like rooms. Contains swimming pool, tennis court and sports court.
    * With appartments for groups of 2 to 6 people, most with kitchen and no air conditioning. Contains wifi, swimming pool, barbecue area.
    * Rooms with air conditioning and wifi. With swimming pool and "meditation" area.
    *Rooms with air conditioning, from 2-8 people (those with 3+ people contain kitchen). Ammenities include swimming pool, sauna and BBQ area.
