Praia Grande (São Paulo)

Praia Grande is a city in the Baixada Santista metro area, in the São Paulo state, being conurbated with São Vicente and Itanhaém. Often mocked by Paulistas as a chaotic and dirty coastal city, Praia Grande has cleaned up its name in recent years, by dramatically reducing beach pollution and improving urban infrastructure.
