The park is situated at the base of the Serra do Mar, which acts as a primary barrier between the Atlantic Ocean and the interior plateau.
The site includes a segment of the Poço das Antas, a natural pool formed by the rocks and waters of the local river system.
The park serves as a rehabilitation center for animals seized from illegal trafficking in the Baixada Santista region.
The geological exhibits highlight the Precambrian metamorphic rocks characteristic of the local coastal geology.
Parque Ecológico A Tribuna de Mongaguá is a municipal park focused on environmental education and the preservation of Atlantic Forest flora and fauna. The site features a series of ecological trails through dense native vegetation leading to a geological site known as the Poço das Antas. Visitors can observe local wildlife in rehabilitation areas and educational exhibits managed by the municipal department. The park contains a designated area for the observation of geological formations typical of the Serra do Mar coastal range. It serves as an outdoor laboratory for students and tourists interested in regional biodiversity. The grounds are integrated into the broader Atlantic Forest biome, providing a habitat for native birds and small mammals.
