How it works

Praia do Forte has a reef barrier very close to shore. At low tide the water pulls back and forms shallow, crystal-clear natural pools among the corals — open-air aquariums with colourful fish and other marine life visible without diving deep.

Tide table

Open from 9am to 3pm. The water is already low enough about 2 hours before the exact low-tide time, while it's still going out, and stays good for about 4 hours after — so a day's window can start before low tide and end well after it.
