It was smaller than I've been to other places, but close and intimate. Probably crowded I peak season, but July it was perfect. Some signs had English but not all.

The visit is very pleasant and the path is interesting with posters and exhibitions. The place is not very big but there are spectacular types of marine animals. I suggest to avoid peak time as it could be stressing waiting in the queue. Near the exit, you can touch a number of live examples like the star fish, pepino do mar, etc. There is a small restaurant inside, which can also serve people not in the aquarium from the side overlooking the beach.

Do not go here, tanks are way too small!! Plus it’s 60r for what took about 5 mins to walk through. They chuck a few conservation things at the end to justify it.

I am not a fan of watching caged creatures BUT after the demand of the little one we checked this place the family all together. Unfortunately, as expected, the room for most of these creatures is extremely limited and only for this reason this was a very sad image. It would be more humanitarian to somehow expand the tanks for these poor fishes.

I admire the effort that people put into building this place, but the place for the sharks and the one for penguins was completely inadequate. Way too small. The large shark could only swim in circles. Small circles.

Very nice manageable size for children. We saw species we'd never seen before and there is a beautiful shell collection. The tide exhibit was fun. The petting pool was a new experience too. There's a nicely decorated cafe (we got a free coffee with a family ticket) overlooking a play area outside on the promenade. The recycling exhibit was overly sombre at the end of the tour.

One of the best spacious beaches in Ubatuba region, perfect for families.

The first beach I visited

Nice place to spend the week end

A beautiful place, but, unfortunately, you need to conquer your own space in this beach. It's always full of people all day.

Beautiful, not too crowded, but some trash

Awesome beach!

An amazing place, clean water and safe. The only issue are some impolite and pain the neck Brazilians that use cheap usb speakers to play loud and awful songs on the beach.

Good beach but crowded. If you like surfing then it is not good place but nice if you are with kids

Avoid this beach if you're traveling with kids. Vicious dogs freely roam at this beach. Same dog bit my 3yo and 5yo.

Beautiful beach. Access road is a bit tricky/bumpy, but has breathtaking views along the way.

One of the best beaches in the region to relax. Very calm, pool-like sea, usually a bit warmer than elsewhere. If you are looking for some very tasty caipirinhas, try the "Caju" kiosk.

Very good restaurant with a large variety of fish and sea food. The food is delicious but they got me the wrong dish the last time I was there. They promptly offered to replace it.

Amazing pizza, the best we've ever had... Great shrimp risotto. Very recommended!

U can order abadejo for 1 person, even thou it will serve 2 people easily, food is really taste and fresh.

Excellent service, ambiance and food. We had the shrimp with Catupiry and hearts of palm. Very tasty. The waiter was attentive and helpful.

Wonderful seafood with lobster and ceviche being a true highlight. I didn't find a better place in Ubatuba.

Exceptional sea food. Friendly staff and extremely prompt service. It really worth all the money. Nothing to complain...Be aware: plates are really big. We took 1 portion of red shrimps...and we were done !

We sit at the restaurant at 2050 and get the food at 2125. The drinks came after the food. Look at the photo... The two glasses don't even match. The food is just ordinary. Not professional.

Huge portions in a pleasant setting. Service was quite good and sufficient (one item was forgotten, though). The salmon tasted very good but the palm heart risotto that a friend and I shared gave both of us a grumbling stomach for the rest of the day.

Excellent food, wonderful service and beautiful atmosphere. The hosts made us feel special and we will definitely visit them again. Congratulations!

Excelent food, totally unexpected to find a place like Es-sência in Ubatuba. Thai dishes and great martinis!

Busy, great value and quick service!

Great vibrant atmosphere, delicious burger and potatoes chips with seasonings. I'll be back for sure 🤗

The place is far more exciting than I expected. Sure I will come back sooner end every time I return to Ubatuba.

(Translated by Google) Good sfiha, I can't deny it. POOR service! Uncoordinated! 50 minutes waiting for a soda... Then, soon after, there was a table next to which the waiter had already attended and already took the drink. In other words, this shows the lack of preparation and organization! I was a frequent customer, but unfortunately the wait staff is pretty bad, which ends up taking away the pleasure of visiting the place. It's go and get angry. (Original) Esfiha boa, não posso negar. Atendimento PÉSSIMO! Descoordenado! 50 minutos esperando um refrigerante... Aí logo depois chegou uma mesa ao lado a qual o garçom já atendeu e já levou a bebida em seguida. Ou seja, isso mostra a falta de preparo e de organização! Eu era um cliente que sempre frequentava, mas infelizmente a equipe de garçons é bem ruim, o que acaba tirando o prazer de frequentar o local. É ir e passar raiva.

(Translated by Google) Every time I go to Ubatuba, I have to have this esfirra, it's huge and always delicious! Of course, it depends on how hungry the person is, but this one in the photo, two esfirras and a kibbeh, was for two people who left very satisfied!! (Original) Toda vez que vou para Ubatuba, tem que ter essa esfirra, ela é enorme e sempre deliciosa! Claro que depende da fome da pessoa, mas essa da foto duas esfirras e um kibe, foi para duas pessoas que saíram bem satisfeitas!!

(Translated by Google) Terrible... We ordered a roast beef Beirut, it came with a tough, dry and horrible meat.. That is not ROASTBEAT NOR IN CHINA..the meat is fried in a frying pan....full of ham. The pasta was like Rep10...no idea...never again. GRADE 0. Not to mention that the waiter doesn't know how to answer. (Original) Péssima... Pedimos um Beirute de rosbife, veio uma carne dura, seca e horrível.. Aquilo não é ROSBIFE NEM NA CHINA..a carne é frita em frigideira....cheio de presunto. A massa era tipo Rep10...sem noção..Nunca mais. NOTA 0. Sem contar que o garçom não sabe atender.

(Translated by Google) Good service, pleasant and organized environment. I ordered a handmade snack with Bacon and caramelized onions. The wonderful and very crispy fries, the snack I missed a sauce because it was dry, and a seasoned mayonnaise to go with it. This made the difference in deciding whether I would come back having other options. Fair price (Original) Bom atendimento, ambiente agradável e organizado. Pedi um lanche artesanal com Bacon e cebola caramelizada. A batata frita maravilhosa e bem crocante, o lanche eu senti falta de um molho porque estava seco, e uma maionese temperada pra acompanhar. Isso fez a diferença em me decidir se voltaria eu tendo outras opções. Preço justo
