Superagui National Park is a coastal national park on the Atlantic coast of the state of Paraná in southern Brazil, protecting islands, mangroves and Atlantic Forest remnants. The park conserves a mosaic of marine, estuarine and forest habitats that are regionally important for biodiversity.

Island landscapes, mangrove estuaries and stretches of Atlantic Forest that support coastal wildlife and migratory species. Much of the park’s interest lies in its undeveloped coastlines and the island systems within the protected area.

The park was created to protect these coastal and insular ecosystems and has been managed as part of Brazil’s system of federal protected areas. Management focuses on habitat conservation and regulated visitor access.

Geographically the park lies along the northern coast of Paraná, near the municipality of Guaraqueçaba, and comprises a number of islands and coastal zones accessible from nearby coastal communities.

  • Access: Access to the park and its islands is typically by boat from nearby coastal towns; many areas are reachable only with a guide or organized trip.

What to See #

  • Ilha do Superagui: Ilha do Superagui is one of the park's main islands and contains extensive mangrove and coastal Atlantic Forest habitats that the park protects.
  • Mangrove and estuary areas: Estuarine and mangrove zones form key ecosystems within the park and support a range of coastal and marine life.
