Cananéia is a historic coastal municipality located in the southern part of São Paulo state, Brazil. Founded in 1531, it is one of the oldest cities in Brazil and was an important port during the colonial period. The city sits on an island within a complex estuarine system, surrounded by mangroves, Atlantic rainforest, and pristine beaches.
The region is known for its rich cultural heritage, blending Portuguese colonial influences with indigenous and African traditions. Local culture is strongly tied to traditional fishing practices, and the area is notable for its preservation of caiçara culture - the traditional way of life of coastal communities in southeastern Brazil.
The historic center features colonial-era architecture, including the Igreja Matriz de São João Batista, which dates back to the 18th century. The surrounding waters are home to rare species like the Guiana dolphin, making the area significant for both cultural and natural heritage.
