Ponta do Madeiro, Coastal beach in Tibau do Sul, Brazil.
The Atlantic Ocean waves meet a 1500-meter stretch of sand bordered by tall cliffs and dense vegetation at Ponta do Madeiro Beach.
The development of Ponta do Madeiro Beach began in the 1980s when local fishermen discovered its potential for tourism and water activities.
Local residents maintain traditional fishing practices along the shore, offering visitors fresh catches at beachfront restaurants throughout the day.
Visitors can access the beach via a wooden staircase from the parking area, with umbrellas and chairs available for rent near the entrance.
The beach contains natural pools formed by coral reefs during low tide, creating protected areas for swimming and marine life observation.
