The Serra do Mar State Park is an Integral Protection Conservation Unit of the São Paulo City Green Belt and Mata Atlântica Biosphere Reserve in the State of São Paulo (see map).

The largest park of the Atlantic Rainforest biome protects the dense submontane and montane tropical rainforest that occurs above the magnificent escarpments of the Serra do Mar mountain range along the coastline of São Paulo state. The nucleus Caraguatatuba, Cunha, Curucutu, Pedro de Toledo, Picinguaba, Itutinga - Pilões, São Sebastião and Santa Virgínia give access to a number of hiking & mountain bike trails.

 
The Serra do Mar State Park is still home to some indigenous Guarani tribes (for example Aldeia Indígena de Boa Vista do Sertão do Prumirim, Ribeirão Silveira, Rio Branco, do Bananal and do Aguapeú) such as some caiçara populations in the municiples of Cananéia, Iguape and Peruíbe such as the northern coast.
