Lagoa do Cauípe

Lagoa do Cauípe is a wide sandy beach stretching far along the Atlantic coast, ringed by coconut palms and dunes that protect the shoreline. The water stays shallow and calm near the shore, making it suitable for wading and water sports.

The Cauípe River formed this coastal region over centuries, creating a natural lagoon system that opens to the ocean through a narrow sandbank. This interaction between river and sea shaped the landscape visitors see today.

Local fishers work the water using age-old methods while international water sports enthusiasts gather here to practice their skills on the lagoon.

The beach is easiest to reach at low tide when more sand is exposed and walking along the shore becomes simpler. Generally, visiting during the drier months offers more stable conditions for spending time here.

The flat water and steady winds here create conditions where beginner kiteboarders can practice alongside experienced athletes. This combination makes it a training ground where people of different skill levels work side by side.
