In the city of Maxaranguape you will find Maracajaú beach, roughly 60 km from Natal, and full of surprises, with its crystal clear waters, and its Parrachos de Maracajaú, (11565) coral reefs, a short distance from shore.   The reefs are 7 km from shore, but there are many tours which will take you out to see them.   Tourism is the main economic activity of this small fishing village with about 2,000 inhabitants and known as the Caribbean of the Rio Grande do Norte, it has great tourism infrastructure.   Maracajaú Beach is fun for the entire family, and includes an entire tourist complex known as Ma-Noa,(11856) with it's own swimming pools, aquatic park and restaurant.

By Car: Leaving Natal towards the north coast, take the BR 101 towards the Bulls. From Genipabu boards Portal Maracajaú indicate the path.

Buggy: Certainly the most beautiful and exciting way to get Maracajaú.  Visit the beaches, lagoons and coconut plantations in the region.

By Tour Bus: Tour companies will pick you up right from your hotel in Natal, and drop you off at the best locations, later returning you to your hotel.
