From Maceió: Praia do Francês, Barra de São Miguel & Praia do Gunga Tour

Explore three Alagoas beaches in one guided full-day tour with round-trip transfers from Maceió.

Getting started

Begin your day trip by meeting your expert guide and getting on the vehicle that will take you out of Maceió. Settle in for the first leg of the journey as your round-trip transfers connect the city to the coast. Once on the road, your guide outlines the plan to visit Praia do Francês, Barra de São Miguel, and Praia do Gunga.

What to expect

Praia do Francês

Praia do Francês is your introduction to the Alagoas coastline, known for calm sections protected by coral and areas with more movement. You spend time by the shore before continuing along the coast.

Features

• Crystal-clear waters and natural pools appear at low tide, with coral reefs helping to form quieter swimming areas close to the sand.
• Local stalls and restaurants focus on fresh seafood, so you can choose to buy a meal or snacks, since food and drinks are not included.
• Your professional guide stays available during this first stop, since the day trip to Praia do Francês, Barra de São Miguel, and Praia do Gunga includes guiding support from start to finish.

Barra de São Miguel

Barra de São Miguel offers a quieter stretch of coast with gentle water conditions. This stop gives you time in a place known for its balance of shoreline and services.

Features

• Calm waters and a developed beachfront create conditions that are suitable for a relaxed swim or sitting by the sea.
• Infrastructure along the beach provides options such as bars, umbrellas, or possible boat trips to nearby points, which are treated as optional attractions to be purchased on-site.
• Transport between Praia do Francês, Barra de São Miguel, and your final stop is handled through the included round-trip transfers, so you do not need to arrange local transport yourself.

Praia do Gunga

Praia do Gunga is the final beach on the itinerary, recognized in the region for its combination of vegetation and coastal cliffs. You close the route here before heading back to Maceió.

Features

• Coconut groves extend behind the sand, while colorful cliffs rise nearby, and viewpoints in the area offer different perspectives of the coastline.
• Activities such as buggy rides, 4x4 ATV rides, and other water sports are available as optional attractions at Praia do Gunga, and these are not included in the tour price.
• Your expert guide coordinates time at this last beach and confirms the meeting point for the return leg, so the included round-trip transportation back to Maceió runs on schedule.
