Praia Bela

A beach where a river meets the sea, with a warm, calm estuary and palm groves lined with seafood shacks along the shore.

Praia Bela is located in Pitimbu, where a small river flows into the sea. The estuary, where fresh and salt water meet, allows you to wade in the calm river bend at low tide, or walk along the open beach. Many simple food shacks under the palm groves serve crab meat, fried fish and coconut water. It is about 50 kilometers from João Pessoa and can be combined with Tambaba in a south-coast itinerary. It is crowded with local visitors on weekends and quiet on weekdays.
