Lagoa de Carapebus is a remarkable coastal lagoon situated within the Restinga de Jurubatiba National Park (PARNA Jurubatiba) in the northern region of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. This lagoon stands out as one of the most biologically diverse water bodies in the entire park system, boasting the highest number of fish species recorded exclusively within a single lagoon of the park. Its dynamic nature as a coastal lagoon means it experiences fluctuating salinity levels, shifting between freshwater and brackish conditions depending on connectivity with the ocean and seasonal rainfall patterns. This environmental variability is precisely what drives the extraordinary diversity of fish life found here, making it a fascinating and productive destination for anglers.

The most productive areas within Lagoa de Carapebus are those associated with dense aquatic macrophyte beds, as fish richness is directly correlated with vegetation density. Shallow vegetated margins, areas near inflow channels, and zones where the lagoon narrows or connects to adjacent water bodies are all worth exploring. The lagoon's position within the Restinga de Jurubatiba National Park means that the surrounding restinga (coastal sandplain) vegetation and wetland habitats create a mosaic of productive edge habitats along the shoreline.
