Mosqueiro Beach, Atlantic beach in Aracaju, Brazil

Mosqueiro Beach lies about 22 km south of Aracaju, Sergipe, at the mouth of the Vaza-Barris River. It has fine, light sand and a wide band of coarse golden sand; depending on the weather, the sea can form waves, but the water stays transparent. It is one of the longest beaches in the city, lined with coconut palms and a few bars.

The area became a tourist destination after the Sebastiao Rabelo de Oliveira Bridge was built in 1976. This bridge created a stable connection to the mainland and encouraged regional economic growth.

From the beach and the Orla do Pôr do Sol, catamarans leave for the Croa do Goré sandbank, the Ilha dos Namorados and the city of São Cristóvão. In summer, young people play football at dusk while families picnic in the shade of the coconut palms.

The beach lies about 22 km south of Aracaju, at the mouth of the Vaza-Barris river, near the village of the same name. Catamaran trips to Croa do Goré, Ilha dos Namorados and São Cristóvão leave from the Orla do Pôr do Sol, on the other side of the village. The sea can form waves depending on the weather, and the wide sand strip suits windsurfing.

From the Mosqueiro waterfront, catamarans leave for the Croa do Goré sandbank and the Ilha dos Namorados, and also for the city of São Cristóvão. The Orla do Pôr do Sol, on the other side of the village, is where passengers board and one of the capital's spots for watching the sunset.
