The beach of Cumbuco in the municipality of Caucaia is extensive, has firm sand, calm sea and plenty of pebbles near the water.

A differential of this beach is that from it is offered a buggy or quad ride around, which has the option of being “with or without emotion”.

Many visitors say that the buggy ride is the coolest part of Cumbuco!

The charm of the fishing village makes the visit even more inviting. Full of options for inns and restaurants, it is surrounded by dunes and is close to other attractions, such as the Banana Lagoon, and beaches as well known as Barra do Cauípe and Icaraí.

Add to this scenery cinematic dunes, orange cliffs, coconut groves, lagoons with clear waters, giving the tone of spectacle to the destination and promoting a trip full of unforgettable experiences.
