Tambaba Beach
Praia de Tambaba
The first officially recognized naturist beach in northeastern Brazil, with natural pools beneath the cliffs and a rock with coconut palms, divided into a naturist area and a general area.
Tambaba is the first officially recognized naturist beach in northeastern Brazil. A headland divides the beach into two sections. On the north side, the general area is open for visitors to roam freely, with its iconic "Coconut Tree Rock" and natural pools at low tide. The south side is the naturist area, which has strict rules: men must enter in pairs, and photography and inappropriate behavior are prohibited. The whole beach is surrounded by sea cliffs and Atlantic forest, and the environment remains natural. It is about 45 kilometers from João Pessoa and is often the southernmost stop on south-coast day trips. There is a staff member at the entrance to the naturist area. Please learn the rules in advance.
