My Commentary: As for Ilha Comprida, I was about 10 without visiting Iguape. This town is part of my infancy and seeing it again was important for me. Its colonial style had my attention since I was a child but as an adult now I see that negligence is the key word for Iguape. Politicians nor its citizens care too much about the place and while Ilha Comprida (an island in front of it) is growing up and getting structure, Iguape is stopped in time (in the negative way of the therm). Apart of all this it's still possible to visit places and search for interesting spots to visits, as shown below.
