Arcos da Orla de Atalaia, Monument at Atalaia seashore, Aracaju, Brazil

Arcos da Orla de Atalaia is a monument of four thick blue vertical structures standing side by side on the paved boardwalk of Atalaia beach in Aracaju, Brazil. Each rises straight and curves over at the top into an inverted U-shaped arch, joined along adjacent sides. The two central arches are taller and narrower than the outer ones, and a small rectangular grey plaque sits near the bottom of one central section. Built in concrete and covered with blue pastilhas, they stand over 10 metres tall.

The monument was built in 1994 as part of the Orla Project, an initiative that turned the waterfront into a modern recreational area. It was the first structure of that project, marking the beginning of a broader transformation along the coast.

The arches stand on the Atalaia beach boardwalk, and just in front of them is a sign with the phrase "Eu amo Aracaju" (I love Aracaju), a spot used for photographs. Each of the four arches represents a phase in the construction of the Atalaia waterfront.

The monument is freely accessible at any time of day throughout the year with no entry requirements. The surrounding area has restaurants and places to stay, so it is easy to combine a visit with a meal or an overnight stop.

The four arches mark the stages of the Atalaia waterfront's construction: the first went up with the founding of the promenade, and each later arch records a phase of the Orla Project begun in 1994. The set was renovated in late 2013 under governor Jackson Barreto de Lima.
