When to go
The beach-day index peaks in January–October; May scores 8.7/10 with highs of 25 °C, sea at 24.8 °C and 64 mm of rain.
In May that is 0.8 points above the median of the 659 beaches in Brazil covered by this atlas.
At its warmest the water here is 0.5 °C cooler than the Brazil median for March (26.6 °C).
Across the year the sea averages 24.3 °C, warmer than 75% of the coastal beaches in the atlas.
December is the wettest month (151 mm) and August the driest (35 mm); the yearly total is about 1,000 mm.
Daylight runs from 10.9 hours in June to 13.4 hours in December; in mid-May the sun rises at 06:03 and sets at 17:12 local time.
Orientation, sun and shore
The shore faces south-east (140°). Open water fills about 42% of the horizon close by, which makes it an open stretch of shore.
At no time of year does the sun set over the sea here: sunset bearings run from 245° to 295°, behind the land.
Sunrise is over the sea in July–May.
Straight out to the south-east there is open water for more than 2,000 km, so the beach is exposed to long ocean swell.
About 1 km offshore the sea is roughly 16 m deep and 22 m at 3 km. Behind the beach the ground is about 0 m above sea level 500 m inland and 13 m at 1.5 km, a flat coastal plain.
Within 1 km, the land is 79% built-up land, 7% tree cover and 7% mangroves (satellite land-cover map, 2021): an urban beach. Water makes up 51% of that circle.
- Built 79%
- Tree 7%
- Mangrove 7%
- Grass 4%
- Bare 3%
