Barra de Tabatinga

Barra de Tabatinga is a beach along the coast of Nísia Floresta with year-round warm water and soft white sand that stretches along the shore. The gentle waves and shallow waters make it an easy place to enter and swim.

The first permanent settlement in this coastal area began in the 1800s when fishing communities established their homes near Barra de Tabatinga. These early residents relied on the sea as their livelihood and shaped how the place developed.

Local fishermen deliver their daily catch to beachfront restaurants, where cooks prepare traditional seafood dishes that have been handed down through families. This connection between the sea and food shapes how people experience the place.

The beach offers parking areas, restroom facilities, and rental equipment for water activities, with lifeguards on duty during busy times. Pay attention to the tides, as they affect where you can swim and when the natural pools are accessible.

Rock formations along the shoreline create natural pools at low tide, offering protected swimming areas where you can see dolphins feeding. These tidal pools form naturally without human intervention.
