Beaches in Pernambuco

Best Beaches in Pernambuco

Pernambuco’s coastline is defined by a massive coral reef system that creates shallow natural pools at low tide. This selection spans from the urban reefs of Recife’s Boa Viagem and Pina to the coconut groves of Praia dos Carneiros. It includes high-energy surfing breaks like Maracaípe and Cupe, alongside the estuary environments of Barra do Sirinhaém and Guadalupe. These shores feature a mix of 18th-century colonial landmarks, such as the Chapel of Saint Benedict, and protected marine ecosystems.
