Legend even claims that, in the final battle that ousted the French, who occupied Rio, São Sebastião was seen sword in hand among the Portuguese, mestizos and Indians, fighting the French Calvinists.
São Sebastião Day is a very special day to visit Paraty and the state of Rio de Janeiro, specially the famous Catedral Metropolitana de Sao Sebastiao do Rio de Janeiro.
Here you'll find accomodation at Paraty and also some Paraty hostel Packages.
In addition, the day of battle coincided with the holy day, celebrated on January 20th. San Sebastian is the protector of mankind against famine, pestilence and war.
