Ilha Grande is a lovely island off the coast. You get a boat there from Angra dos Reis, and there's lots of lodgings. You need a few days to make the most of it, including the best part of a day there and back from Sao Paulo including bus and boat - well worth it though

The closest beach to São Paulo is Guaruja. It takes you 1 hour by car and about 2 hours by bus from São Paulo. You can take a bus from "Rodoviaria Tiete" (the big bus station in São Paulo.
Guaruja is popular only because it is close. There are much nicer beaches (for example Ubatuba, Ilha Bela) if you are willing to spend 4-5 hours in a car/bus.
I suggest Ubatuba. You will really like the place. You can take a bus from Rodoviaria Tiete, but remember, Brazil is not a safe place. Take care.

Just as a correction note, if you want to take a bus to Guaruja from Sao Paulo, you have to go to Jabaquara Bus Terminal, not Tiete. Guaruja is a nice city, good beaches and very good reputation among the middle class population who flocks the city during summer time and long weekends. Regarding safety issues, you should be cautious like anywhere else.
