Fishing near Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Pernambuco
Cabo de Santo Agostinho sits on the Atlantic coast of Pernambuco, 35 km south of Recife, where mangroves, tropical beaches, and several rivers converge. The area draws anglers to its estuaries and nearby rivers — including the Rio Ipojuca and Rio Jaboatão — for tarpon (locally called camurupim), peacock bass, snook, and crevalle jack, part of the same productive northeastern Brazil fishery centered on the greater Recife region.
