About Maceió
Maceió, capital of the Brazilian state of Alagoas, is a beach city of warm turquoise water, natural reef pools and palm-lined sands on the Coral Coast.
Maceió sits between the Atlantic and the Mundaú lagoon on the north-east coast of Brazil. Its city beaches, Pajuçara, Ponta Verde and Jatiúca, run along a palm-lined seafront of kiosks and walking paths. At low tide, small sailing rafts called jangadas carry people out to natural pools in the reef off Pajuçara, where colourful fish gather in the shallow, clear water.
