Santos nie ma zbyt wielu atrakcji, ale ta jest godna obejrzenia. Niegdyś broniła dostępu do portu, dziś stanowi o kunszcie XVIII-wiecznych budowniczych obiektów obronnych.

Para os amantes do turismo histórico e cultural este é um ponto que você não pode deixar de visitar e conhecer.Também há a necessidade de agendamento antecipado pelo telefone 13-33846194 ou e-mail.É a segunda fortificação mais antiga do Brasil.Patrimônio Nacional. Vale a pena visitá-lo.

No terminal portuario (fica pertinho do aquario) pegue um barco que faz a travesia( + ou - 3 minutos) para a praia do Gomes (R$2,50) e peça para o barqueiro parar no Forte. Uma edificação antiga com muita historia que o Sr. Ivan ,como gosta de ser chamado , pois seu nome é Ivanildo,irá contar todos os detalhes em prosa e rima.Se estiver em "clima" com o(s) visitante(s) , pegará o violão e entoará musica de sua autoria,isso dentro da capela que para minha surpresa tem um mural muito bonito do Mabe. Sr. Ivan deve ser tratado como patrimonio do forte. Passeio de custo muito baixo...imperdivel.Bom para a familia ou casal.Tem bons sanitarios (limpos) , boa lanchonete (não deixe de provar o bolo de banana)..Cuidado ao descer na plataforma,pois o Forte fica a sua direita e o portão de entrada parece que está trancado , empurre e entre. A sua esquerda existe um caminho onde pode deparar com algumas pessoas que gostam de um "cigarrinho"...O local fica aberto a visitação de 3a a sabado..Não cobra ingresso.

Fui orientado a ir para o Forte de barquinha. Esta barquinha só sai com lotação máxima, esperamos muito tempo e desistimos. Fomos de carro.
Não há estacionamento no locar, tive que deixar o carro em cima da calçada.
Ao chegar no Forte, havia mais de 15 pessoas no local, se drogando, o portão do Forte estava trancado e a campainha não estava funcionando. Conseguimos voltar ilesos.
Por mim, pode derrubar aquilo, ninguém liga mesmo.

Ecoaventura, pois para chegar na Fortaleza é necessário pegar uma das barcas que saem da ponte edgar perdigão na ponta da praia em Santos, ou pegar a balsa para o guarujá e ir de carro até lá, + ou - 20km.
Caso você queira um passeio com trilha, recomendo o seguinte que fiz uma vez, pegue a barca que sai da ponta da praia em santos e vá até a praia do góes, chegando lá desça e inicie a trilha até a fortaleza, passando por cima das pedras e também por dentro de uma fenda na montanha, tem até uma lanchonete lá, passando a fenda, você chegará na estrada que dá acesso de carro, lá você passará pelo vilarejo e por uma praia forrada de conchas pegando uma ponte que irá dar na fortaleza.
Vale a pena o contato com a natureza e a vista da baía de santos.

A travessia é feita de Santos "ponte dos práticos", com embarcações pequenas e preços populares uns 3 reais, por pessoa, leva uns 5 minutos, o visual de lá é surpreendentemente lindo, a arquitetura e a paisagem são ótimos cenário para belas fotos, além de ter caminhada pela trilha e é monitorada, é um programa bem diferente e agradável.Fizemos os ensaios fotográficos de 15 anos da minha filha lá e ficou incrível.

Atravessar até lá já é muito diferente nas barquinhas. Entrar naquele local parece uma volta ao tempo. Apreciar aquela vista maravilhosa. Conhecer um pouquinho da nossa história.

Known as Fortaleza da Barra Grande, the fortification is located between Praia do Góes and Praia de Santa Cruz dos Navegantes, in the town of Guarujá. The Fortaleza is designed on the channel of access to the estuary of Latin America's largest port and was built in 1584 to protect the Villa de Santos from pirate invasions. From there, the soldiers had a strategic and privileged view of all the port entrances and thus managed to intimidate the invaders with their cannons. In 1964, the Fortaleza da Barra was recognized as a National Historic Heritage Site by IPHAN.
The access to the Fortaleza can be made via boats that depart from Ponta da Praia de Santos and by the Santa Cruz dos Navegantes Road, a beautiful access by itself, on an asphalt road, but with many curves but it is well signalled, excellent to enjoy with calm the landscape. From the fortification, it is possible to appreciate the grandiose shore of Santos and check out the history of the place and the region.
The Fortaleza da Barra Grande is open to the public and functions as a historical museum, whose mission is to promote the valuation and preservation of the cultural heritage and historical memory of the city of Guarujá and the port of Santos. with free visitation operating from Tuesday to Friday from 09 to 17h, Saturdays from 10 to 16h and Sundays and holidays 9 to 15h. When arriving at the site the signage is precarious, because there is nothing that indicates that there is the place, you will find only a small gate and a wall with the inscription of Centro Comunitário José Luiz Ribeiro do Nascimento, where you will give access to the Forte, where the same is not so pleasant because I found some drug users in the place, however I ventureed for the said access and had no problems although I was a little scared. The access is a narrow track well marked and with a nice view, in the fort there was a Guide, had a cantine but the same was not working, has no parking but in front there is a terrain that is possible to park, I believe it is a tour that is worth it for those who like adventure and know a little of the history of the place, besides contemplation of the landscape, panoramic photos, guided visitation, contemplation of architecture and historical objects. Free tour and a good tour option.

A balsa de Santos pra lá custa 4 reais (ida e volta). Pega na Ponta da Praia. A fortificação é histórica e foi usada para proteger a vila de Santos. A vista para a praia de Santos é maravilhosa. Vale o passeio.
