Campina beach, Sand beach in Rio Tinto, Brazil.
Description
Campina beach is a sandy shore that stretches for several kilometers along Rio Tinto's coastline. The water is deep and blue, while the beach itself is wide and open, making it easy to find space to walk and swim.
History
The beach has served for decades as a nesting ground for sea turtles in the Paraíba region. This natural role has shaped the area over time and continues to influence how it is valued today.
Culture
Local fishing families have worked these waters for generations, and you can still see them mending nets and preparing boats along the shore. Their daily routines shape how the beach feels and reveal its importance as a working port for the region.
Practical
You can reach the beach by driving on a dirt road, so a sturdy vehicle is helpful for the trip. The best time to visit is between September and December, when the weather is more comfortable and stable.
Did you know?
Coconut palm groves and cliffs naturally frame the shoreline and provide shelter from strong ocean winds. This geographic arrangement creates calmer areas where visitors experience the beach quite differently from more exposed stretches.
