Maragogi is one of the best destinations in the Northeast of Brazil, and conquers the public for its simplicity and beauty.
Maragogi and its surroundings are part of the so-called Costa dos Corais, an environmental protection area that extends for about 120 km along the coast and is home to beautiful beaches, with warm waters, coconut groves as far as the eye can see and many natural pools thanks to the coral reefs. corals.
Some destinations in the region are better known, others are still little explored and all have in common a stunning beauty.
The main activities in the city are facing the sea, which has beautiful colors! You can enjoy the beaches of Maragogi, take a trip to its natural pools or take a buggy ride. It is important to note that Maragogi is a small town, it does not have many tourist attractions or obligations, the best thing to do there is to really relax and enjoy the beach.
The trip to the natural pools of Maragogi is certainly one of the main activities that the city offers. It's so popular that a lot of people go to Maragogi just for that.
On the city's coast, inland, there are three groups of natural pools: the Galés, the most visited main pools in the region, located in front of the Salinas resort; the Taocas swimming pools (in front of Maragogi beach); and the swimming pools of Barra Grande.
All natural pools can be visited by catamaran or speedboat. We recommend that you take the tour by speedboat, which is much faster and more practical. The number of visitors to the pools is controlled daily and tourists need to wear a colored wristband to control people when performing the activity.
The small town of Maragogi has mainly guesthouses and a few hotels, as well as a well-known resort called Salinas Maragogi.
Maragogi has restaurants for all budgets, some simpler and others more refined. Dishes with fish and seafood are present on the city's menus, with the advantage of being very fresh. Tapiocas and a regional cookie called bolo de goma also deserve a place in your itinerary and are part of the city's gastronomy.
It is hot all year in Maragogi, but it is important to pay attention to the rainy season.
The months between October and January have the least rainfall, while between April and July it rains the most. You can travel to the city all year round because it is always hot, but we recommend the less rainy months not only because the chance of getting open weather days is more likely, but because at this time when it rains less the sea also tends to be more crystal clear.
Some people visit Maragogi just to take a trip to the natural pools, but if you want to get to know the place well, it's best to stay there. We recommend at least 2 days to do the main tours. If you just want to relax, with no “obligations” for tours and want time to enjoy the beaches calmly, stay around 4 days.
Have Fun!
