Good beach to visit. The height of reefs help create pools that don't disappear during high tide. Water is a bit colder than other Beaches with natural pools. Not too much fish to see compared with Cupe Beach and Natural Pools of Porto da Galinhas. Still a good option to visit once other pools have disappeared during high tide.

The beach is too small and the sand is thick. The restaurant has a nice food, but the service is extremely slow and inefficient. The bathroom is clean.
Don't get the service of "Luck Receptivo" (the main travel agency of the region), it's very expensive and they fool the clients.

Bridge is a little price, but is the best way to go to paiva, gaibu, calhetas and suape. The way is just clean, no traffic, lots of coconuts trees, and luxury houses, you get to your destination very fast. Way to go recife

Make your experience better by crossing the water at low tide instead of the hysteric affair with the Jangadas(boats). On the beachside just across from the reef the prefeitura of (Ipojuca) Porto Galinhas has an Office. Pick up your time/tidal information here and the Free but obligatory arm bracelet to make the crossing. At first you will be in a group crossing the water but soon enough on the reef you will find plenty of space to wander around on the reef and around the pools. Beware of litlle crab, sharp edges and the many sea urchin!

It's like a time machine travel, a little pearl in the middle of nowhere! It's not just the little church but also the ruins of a convent from 1500s, a little village and a great, astonishing view of the blue ocean!!
I only have to say to be alert about pickpockets......!!!

At this beach at the end of the road from Recife to Maracaipe you will find this beach. It is also known for the thousands of sea horses at the inlet. Definitely a good place to take a stroll along the beach. Many good lunch places along the strip. The waves are excellent for some Surfing.

Wonderful natural sceneric view, good for a morning walk and family trips. However, one should travel fully prepared for drinks and eatables as not many options were seen in the neighborhood. I loved taking spending 3 hours on one week end with my wife & another familyand took photographs.

The beach is calm, the water is very clean and perfect to swim.
The access to the beach is through Galé Resort, so it's almost a private beach.
Don't go there with "Luck Receptivo" (the main travel agency of the region), it's very expensive and they fool the clients
