 How to get there
Transport:
- Car
Access:
- No Walk


Get to Paraipaba, just west of Paracuru. Pass Paraipaba, then after about few minutes turn right to Camboas. Follow the bumpy street to the square, at the end turn left, and then right again. Follow this stony street and then turn left at the first possibility. This street takes you to the beach. With a normal car you have to stop about 200m before, then you need to walk. With a buggy or 4x4 you can drive onto the beach.
