One of the best beaches in Tibau do Sul in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, Dolphins Bay Beach reveals in the name its main attraction. Everyday dolphins come to the beach near the swimmers looking for fish. It is exciting to see these sweet animals in their habitat. An unforgettable experience!
Dolphins Bay also known as Curral beach, has warm and clear waters perfect for a nice bathing. The quiet sea provides lots of fun with kayaks and Stand Up Paddle (SUP) that can be rent at the beach. Both are nice options to get closer to the dolphins.
Dolphins Bay does not provide as much infrastructure as Pipa, the busy beach in the center of the city, but you can rent beach chairs and enjoy the great Brazilian northeast sun, taste some snacks and a cold beverage. The sand strip is the perfect place to practice sports such as footvolley, beachvolley and matkot.
There is no need to be in a vessel to see the dolphins.
