The unspoiled paradise of Japaratinga is snuggled between Maragogi and Porto de Pedras. With five sandy beaches and calm waters wrapped by a grove of palm trees, the old fishing village is the perfect getaway from the daily hustle and bustle.
The beaches stretch out for 15 km from the Alagoas coast, trailing through the heart of Costa dos Corais until reaching the Manguaba River, which draws the line between Japaratinga and Porto de Pedras.
Croa de São Bento lies just up ahead, near the coral reef – a one-of-a-kind rock formation surrounded by sea that has a sand bank bathed by crystal-clear waters. It can only be reached by boat.
And then there are other beaches around the Japaratinga villages: Bitingui, Barreiras do Boqueirão, Boqueirão and Pontal. They all have one thing in common: secluded beaches and calm waters, which reveal even more amazing secrets during the low tide.
Barreiras do Boqueirão is one of the farthest beaches in Japaratinga and has an amazing feel. At low tide, the clear waters draw back to reveal natural pools among rock formations. It is the perfect mix of white beaches, huge reefs and Palm groves.
The beach has a good infrastructure for tourists, with bars and restaurants to enjoy local delicacies like crabs and lobsters.
Japaratinga’s natural pools are not as famous as the ones from Maragogi, but they’re every bit as amazing. Overflowing with fish, corals and other marine life, Japaratinga’s natural pools are known for the most transparent waters on the Alagoas coast.
Tours are available at low tide and visitors are taken by boat. Slap on a snorkel to explore the vast riches hidden underwater. The friendly sergeant-majors, a species of damselfish commonly found in natural pools, like to swim around the visitors.
Since the pools have different depths, even at low tide, visitors are advised to explore with caution. This is an unforgettable trip and a must-do for anyone who loves nature and really enjoys a dose of adventure.
After visiting the natural pools and beaches, back at the Japaratinga Lounge Resort you also have a long list of leisure amenities to choose from, including stand-up paddling, bicycle rental, and many more.
That’s a no-brainer, right? Japaratinga Lounge Resort has everything you need for an unforgettable vacation and a Premium All Inclusive system you won’t find anywhere else in Brazil.
