Catuama area

Catuama is a fishing village 75 km north of Recife, situated on a promontory between the Atlantic Ocean and the river Goiana. The beach is unspoiled, with very little tourist development, and the few bars and small shops are run by local families. The bars sell tasty and well prepared home-made seafood, and the shops are mini-markets with most basic provisions. The village is very quiet and perfectly safe, with virtually no crime.

Boat trips are available into the mangrove swamps, out to the unspoiled sandbanks off shore, and to Ilha de Itamaraca, with its historical fort.
