Hike toLopez Mendez from Brazil Green Map on Vimeo.

Lopez Mendez is undoubtedly one of the MOST beautiful beaches in the world. It is a very wide beach with white sand and usually fairly deserted. It is well worth a longer hike or a boat ride plus a short hike. And… you must stop by the restaurant in the bay on the way back for some delicious seafood and beverages. A perfect day!

Interview with Sustainable Pousada Owner from Brazil Green Map on Vimeo.

Sustainability in Ilha Grande
In March 2012, Pace University students traveled from New York City to Ilha Grande, Brazil to learn about sustainability in the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest. After meeting with Nelson Palma, editor and publisher of O Eco Journal, and learning about the history of the island, they set out to meet local entrepreneurs. In this video, one of the island’s pousada owners explains the steps she takes to make Pousada Aratinga sustainable.

We are busy making plans for our visit to Ilha Grande in March. Our group will leave New York City on March 9 arriving in Rio on the 10th. At that point, we will travel to the coast to board our boat to Ilha Grande. Once we arrive, we will meet with Gigi Corau who will be planning our green team building projects on the island. Ilha Grande has been a favorite location for Pace students over the last 5 years. Its natural beauty, beaches and hiking trails make it a paradise!

Open Green Map

We are happy to announce that we are moving our map on to the new Open Green Map. We are working to move all of the 60 sites from Paraty Green Map to Open Green Map, so you may see a reduced number of sites for the next few months.

The Open Green Map (OGM) offers several advantages, primarily the interaction with the icons, searchability on the map, and integration with the entire Green Map Organization. Congratulations to the Green Map team for realizing the OGM in 2009!!! We hope you enjoy the Paraty Open Green Map.

Please send us an email if you run into any problems.
