- Private beach
There is no parking, and the only way to get there is with e jeep or by boat. It is in front of an old jail which is not in use anymore
Atmosphere
Warm air temperature and warm water temperature.
General
It's really good for longboarders, when other beaches around hits 2m swells, this beach breaks perfect 0.5-1m waves Del Mar style.

- the guy that submitted the spot is a total wanker !! "access by boat" ?? when it's accessible by boat it's because wavs arent good. actually, access is a 2-hour walk from the main town "vila do abraao" in ilha grande.

- the beach is actually called "Dois Rios"(two rivers), because there are rivers on both ends. "Presídio" means jail, but theres no more jail, only ruins of it. definitely worth a check, not so much for the waves, as the beach is not very exposed to swells, onl breaking on big swells. but it's a really wonderful paradisiac and empty beach, bring your girl and have fun!
