The boat ramp on Rio Sirinhaém is a concrete launch facility belonging to a local marina, providing the primary access point for fishing the river. All fishing here is done from a boat rather than by wading.

The river is well regarded for tarpon and snook, with both species catchable using similar techniques and bait. Anglers typically spot tarpon when they roll at the surface to breathe, casting in the direction of their movement.

When surface activity is absent, casting toward mangrove structure is productive and can also yield the two snook species found in these waters.

Rio Sirinhaém sits close to Praia de Carneiros and is within roughly 40 minutes of Porto de Galinhas, making it a convenient alternative destination for anglers already visiting that stretch of the Pernambuco coast.
