Maragogi, Coastal municipality in Alagoas, Brazil.
Located 125 kilometers north of Maceio, Maragogi extends along the coast with coral reefs and transparent waters forming natural pools at low tide.
The settlement, initially named Gamela, received municipal status in 1887 and adopted its current name from the Marahub-gy river in 1892.
The local population of 33,032 inhabitants maintains traditions through festivals, regional dishes, and crafts influenced by indigenous, African, and Portuguese heritage.
Visitors can access Maragogi through airports in Maceio or Recife, with ground transportation taking approximately 2.5 hours from either location.
The Gales, natural pools formed by coral reefs situated 6 kilometers offshore, become accessible during low tide periods throughout the year.
