Praia do Rio Vermelho, Beach in Rio Vermelho, Salvador, Brazil.
The beach extends along the Atlantic Ocean with areas of rocks, small bays, and a fishing colony where local boats gather near the Church of Santana.
The neighborhood surrounding the beach developed from a small fishing village into a central cultural district of Salvador, maintaining its maritime traditions.
Each February 2nd, thousands gather at the beach for the Festa de Iemanjá, offering gifts to the sea goddess in a traditional Afro-Brazilian celebration.
The beach features different sections for swimming and surfing, with a fish market nearby where restaurants serve fresh seafood and regional specialties.
A stone balustrade similar to Porto da Barra Beach surrounds a small bay called Paciência, creating a protected area for water activities.
