with the help of Tupinambás because the French, unlike the Portuguese,
they did not demonstrate colonial ambition, but only commercial desire.

The limit of the Caravelas beach is outlined by rocky shores, the vegetation
around it is a low vegetation with small bushes, its sands are orange with some mixed shells and the blue and translucent sea enchants. A point of reference for this beach is a cross almost in the center of the beach.
Surf Peak
With its rough sea, surfing is a good option for entertainment in Caravelas.

Infrastructure
Caravelas beach belonged to the local resort and is now also open
to the public. In the middle of two hills, it is and almost private, and still has
volleyball net and sun loungers available for free, plus two kiosks.
