Praia do Paiva, Coastal beach in Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Brazil.
The 7.8-kilometer stretch of Praia do Paiva features light sand beaches bordered by dense rows of coconut palms along the shoreline.
The beach area evolved from a traditional fishing settlement into a developed coastal destination, marking the growth of Pernambuco's tourism sector.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices along the beach, contributing to the regional seafood gastronomy and maritime traditions.
Access to Praia do Paiva requires payment of a toll fee, as the beachfront belongs to a private residential development with restricted entry.
During low tide, natural pools form among the coral reefs, creating protected areas for swimming away from the strong ocean waves.
