Trails, lagoons and direct contact with nature
- Lagoa Azul– is one of Baixio’s main attractions.
Visitors can follow guided trails that lead to stunning scenery, including the famous Blue Lagoon, with its warm, transparent waters.
To get there, you have to walk for about 30 minutes inside a private property, with the help of local guides.
The Blue Lagoon has a large bathing area and is surrounded by white sand dunes – an invitation to relax. To protect the environment, access is limited to 35 visitors per day by appointment.
Other lagoons are also surprising:
- Lagoa da Panela – located at Fazenda Baixio, it is perfect for those seeking peace and beauty in a postcard setting.
- Lagoa Verde – with its green, translucent waters, it is ideal for activities such as rowing, stand-up paddling and canoeing. Its size is impressive: the equivalent of four football pitches.
- Lagoa de Inhambupe – where the river meets the sea, creating a quiet, shallow area, ideal for families, with rustic kiosks around the edge.
Viewpoints and memorable experiences
For a spectacular view of the region, visit the Morro do Mamucabo viewpoint, accessible by a sandy track or a 4×4 vehicle. From the top you can see the ocean, coconut groves and lagoons – a natural spectacle.
The nearby Mirante Dedo de Deus offers another privileged view of the town and the coast.
Baixio beach, peace and good food
Praia de Baixio, 16 kilometres long, is perfect for those who love the combination of sea, sun and tranquillity. Its strong waves attract surfers and the beach huts, open mainly at weekends, offer typical snacks and drinks.
