Praia de Aleluia

Praia de Aleluia, Beach in Stella Maris, Salvador, Brazil.

Praia de Aleluia is a stretch of Salvador's coastline in the Stella Maris neighbourhood, between Flamengo and Ipitanga beaches. It forms part of a long, moderately straight shoreline rather than a sheltered cove, and lies away from the Itapuã Fault, with sandstone banks that are usually submerged instead of Precambrian rock outcrops.

The beach emerged as a destination alongside residential developments and hotel construction in the Stella Maris neighborhood. This growth connected the coastal area to Salvador's urban expansion over recent decades.

Praia de Aleluia is associated with Salvador's young, upper-middle and upper classes, described in the press as the city's "gente bonita" and "descolada" crowd. It is a tourist destination listed in the book 100 praias que valem a viagem, and during the 2014 FIFA World Cup, with matches played in Salvador, event tourists also joined its public.

The beach lies in Stella Maris, between Flamengo and Ipitanga beaches. The municipal SALVAMAR service covers Flamengo, Aleluia and Ipitanga as "trecho 4". Currents can surprise bathers, and the beach has historically ranked among Salvador's most dangerous for drowning, second in records for 2012 and first in 2013.

Praia de Aleluia was listed in the book "100 praias que valem a viagem", a selection of Brazil's most enjoyable beaches. During the 2014 FIFA World Cup, with matches played in Salvador, tourists attending the event also joined the beach's public.
