Maragogi

Maragogi is a resort town on the Atlantic coast in eastern Brazil. It's known for its long beaches such as Burgalhau, near the mangrove-lined Dos Paus River. Offshore coral reefs and sandbars have created a shallow lagoon, which acts as a natural pool. South of Maragogi is São Bento, a fishing village with a palm-edged beach. The coast here is part of the Coral Coast protected area, which is rich in flora and fauna.
