Full-Day Visit to Paripueira Beach and Tide Pools in Maceió

I booked this tour through Viator with the understanding that it would be conducted in Spanish, as it was the only language option available at the time of booking. However, the guide did not speak a single word of Spanish during the entire experience. While the destination and logistics of the tour were fine, I ended up paying more than Portuguese-speaking participants for a service that was never delivered. It's not about the money — it's the principle. If you're offering a Spanish-language tour, make sure a Spanish-speaking guide is actually provided. I’ve contacted customer service and am awaiting a resolution. Just a heads-up for other travelers relying on language support.

Very good the walk and the landscape is divine. Don't stop visiting. Too natural pools and good places to eat local food.

Nice ride. Comfortable infrastructure. Very punctual transportation. We loved it and recommend the experience. Affordable price. Great option for family fun. Sea of clear and warm waters. Great.

I went in the period from 01 to 8/07/2023 only rained and was cloudy, if there was sun in Maceió were a 2 times for a few hours. The beach of Paripueira was with the water very smooth on the edge of the beach because of the rain. I recommend going after this period, do not count on the luck of travel agents or sponsored bloggers, Maceió with rain and ventilation is bad, you can not take advantage of what is best, without the fact that parts of the city flooded and did not even get out the night.

The boat ride to the pools is beautiful, the sea of Maceió is beautiful. When the low tide walks a bit into the sea until you get to the boat, it's like the sea would dry, interesting to see how much the water retreats when you arrive earlier and the tide goes down. But there were not many fish to see in the natural pools formed in the coral in Paripueira, we expected more fish, greater beauty in the place, there were no greater attractions outside the transparent waters and the experience itself. We arrived early on the beach with the Enterprise and stayed at the restaurant that serves as a base until the time of departure of the boat paying day use, there are some shops nearby etc. The boat ride, by the way, can only be paid in cash and costs R$ 70,00 per Cover, so many people are caught unaware when they are going to buy the ticket thinking that passing card, this causes a certain mess. Also the day use has price difference between payment with cash or card. There is also the rental of the snorkel and possible purchase of photos at the site of the pools. The advantage of Paripueira is that it is close to resorts like the Salinas de Maceió, Pratagy, about 15/20 minutes, and not 2 hours of travel like Maragogi.

People who take to do the best very attentive. Fair value and I passed it is quiet. It is very worth the dive and take the photos.

The place is beautiful and the walk is well worth it. It just shouldn’t be very easy to take the walk when you have kids, as it takes a long time to go back and forth and they usually don’t have the patience. Beautiful.

Beautiful beach with wonderful natural pools, tranquility and a lot of tranquility by the nature, great for bathing and having fun, great restaurants, sense of safety and freedom...

One of the cleanest, most beautiful beaches in the whole region of Maceió - AL, I recommend to everyone who is looking for a quiet beach, calm and transparent water.
