Maceio

Maceio is the capital city of the Brazilian state of Alagoas. It is known for its beautiful beaches, crystal-clear waters, and coconut groves. One of the most famous beaches is Ponta Verde, which is perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and enjoying a cold drink at the beachside bars. Another favorite spot is the natural pools formed by the coral reefs of Pajuçara Beach, where visitors can snorkel and observe colorful fish. The city also offers delicious seafood cuisine, vibrant nightlife, and cultural attractions such as the Museum of Image and Sound of Alagoas.

 

On your South America cruise to Brazil, you’ll come across the big and burgeoning beach resort of Maceió, its striking beaches and clear, turquoise waters attracting cruisers from all over the world.
It’s also smack in the middle of a far longer strip of some of the best beaches in the country, all easily accessible on day trips. When you arrive with your MSC cruise in Maceió, you’ll start off in the affluent and lively resort area that starts at Pajuçara, a few kilometers to the east of downtown, built along a spectacular beach.
While the city center itself, the commercial and administrative heart of the city just inland from a more polluted (and generally deserted) stretch of sand and the grubby port district, is somewhat down-at-heel it does have a smattering of belle époque buildings and enticing museums. However, what you’ll want to discover on your MSC South America cruise excursion is the amazing beaches.
Sixteen kilometers south of Maceió, the coast road loops around Praia do Francês, which even by Alagoan standards is something special. An enormous expanse of white sand, surf, and thick palm forest, it even boasts several pousadas or inns, and a burgeoning restaurant scene.
Most folks end up at the northern end, a protected lagoon formed by a large reef offshore; surfers take in the pounding waves at the less busy and unsheltered end. Beach bars line the northern section, while Avenida Dos Corais and Rua da Algas run parallel to the sand and are lined with shops and restaurants. Given its proximity to Maceió, it’s no surprise that Francês has effectively become a city beach – so expect a lively atmosphere.
