Praia de Taipus de Fora, Coastal beach in Maraú, Brazil.
The seven-kilometer stretch of white sand beach features natural tidal pools with transparent water, bordered by coconut palms and dense vegetation.
The Maraú Peninsula, where Taipus de Fora stands, developed from a small fishing community into a recognized coastal destination in Bahia state.
The Barra Jazz festival brings musicians and music enthusiasts to the beach, creating a fusion of Brazilian rhythms and international jazz.
Visitors can reach the beach through Ilheus Jorge Amado Airport, located 78 miles away, with local transportation services available at the terminal.
The natural pools formed during low tide create an aquarium effect, revealing a diverse collection of tropical fish and marine organisms.
