Praia de Taipus de Fora, Coastal beach in Maraú, Brazil.

Praia de Taipus de Fora is an extended sandy shoreline in the Maraú area with pale sand and coconut palms lining the edge. The beach creates shallow areas where receding tides leave small pools that trap water and reveal marine life in their natural basins.

The Maraú Peninsula began as a quiet fishing settlement that slowly evolved over time into a recognized destination. The area later gained attention as a coastal location in Bahia state while maintaining ties to its fishing roots.

The beach serves as a gathering place for local fishermen and communities who maintain traditional practices passed down through generations. This way of life shapes how the shoreline is used today, with simple structures and daily routines reflecting deep local roots.

The most direct way to arrive is through the nearest airport, with rental cars and shuttle services available from the terminal. This straightforward access means visitors can spend time on the beach without dealing with complicated transportation arrangements.

At very low tide, the natural pools take on the appearance of a shallow aquarium filled with colorful fish and various sea creatures. This tidal phenomenon shifts with each cycle, making every visit different depending on the day and time.
