Praia de Urussuquara, Beach destination in São Mateus, Brazil.
The sand extends for 5 kilometers along the coastline, where the Ipiranga River meets the ocean at the southern end of São Mateus.
The beach name originates from Tupi language, combining the words uru (bird), usu (large), and kuara (burrow) to form Urussuquara.
Local fishermen maintain traditional practices along the shore, contributing to the regional fishing industry and culinary traditions of Espírito Santo.
