Arituba Lagoon
Lagoa de Arituba
A clear freshwater lake in Nísia Floresta with hammocks and wooden decks by the water, linked with the northern buggy route and the Malembá dunes.
Arituba Lagoon lies about 18 km north of Pipa in Nísia Floresta. It is a freshwater lake surrounded by dunes and coconut groves. The water is clear and cool, with a fine sand bottom. Along the shore are wooden decks, hammocks over the water and a few restaurant-bars, and you can swim and paddle kayaks. The northern buggy tour from Pipa first takes a ferry across Guaraíras Lagoon, then crosses the Malembá dunes to reach here. Southern tours from Natal also often stop by. Some lakeside bars charge a small entry fee or minimum spend, and local visitors crowd in on weekends.
