MODERN GUARUJÁ

In 2003, through my friend Michael Nothenberg, I became acquainted with another resident of Guarujá, Mario Giudicelli. Mario was living in an apartment which faced the Asturias Beach and offered a panoramic view of the waterfront. He was kind enough to send some photos of the area which he had taken from his balcony. You can see examples of them on the page below.

MARIO'S APARTMENT      Mario's apartment can be seen on the top floor, on the left side of the building. The apartment faces the Asturias Beach, (Praia das Astúrias) Collection of Mario Giudicelli

 

VIEW TO THE NORTH Looking northward, showing the crowds which frequent the Astúrias Beach. Collection of Mario Giudicelli

 

VIEW TO THE NORTHEAST      I think the little islet, which is seen to the left of the photograph, is the one immediately off of the Santos Dumont Memorial Park. It can be seen on the previous page. Collection of Mario Giudicelli

 

VIEW TO THE EAST      The Asturias Beach offers nearly two miles of white sand, very popular for bathing. Collection of Mario Giudicelli
