Jacarenema Ecological Reserve, Municipal nature reserve in Vila Velha, Brazil.
The ecological reserve spans 307 hectares, encompassing the Morro da Concha sandbar, Jucu River estuary, and Atlantic Forest vegetation along Rodovia do Sol.
The reserve gained official status through state law 5.427 in 1997, following the initiative of deputy Claudio Vereza with support from governor Vitor Buaiz.
This protected area contains remnants of Jesuit structures, reflecting the historical presence of early Portuguese colonization in the coastal region of Brazil.
Visitors can reach the reserve by crossing the Madalena bridge from Barra do Jucu neighborhood or by walking northward along Itaparica beach.
The mangrove ecosystem features specific proportions of tree species, with Avicennia germinans representing 42 percent of the vegetation composition.
