Praia do Dique is a distinctive coastal fishing location within the Região Metropolitana de João Pessoa, specifically in the municipality of Cabedelo. This area is renowned for its dramatic meeting of the Rio Paraíba and the Atlantic Ocean, creating a dynamic estuarine environment. The beach itself is characterized by a wide, soft white sand strip and is anchored by a significant man-made structure, a 400-meter-long breakwater, or "dique," built to protect port installations. This breakwater and the adjacent confluence zone are the defining features for anglers, offering a unique mix of riverine and oceanic fishing opportunities right from the shore. The area is popular with local residents and fishermen, providing both scenic beauty and productive fishing grounds.
