Santo Aleixo Island by speedboat - departing from Porto de Galinhas

Located on the southern coast of Pernambuco, between the beaches of Porto de Galinhas and Carneiros, Santo Aleixo Island is of volcanic origin, with only 38 hectares of pure beauty.

Because it is privately owned with limited visitation, the island preserves its unspoiled nature, beautiful beaches, and environmental protection. It is also known as Horseshoe Beach, due to its characteristic shape.

Santo Aleixo Island is a gem that should be enjoyed at a leisurely pace to make the trip truly unforgettable. The crossing takes only fifteen minutes by speedboat, departing from Sirinhaém. Upon disembarking, we are greeted by an enchanting scenery of golden sands and crystal-clear, calm waters with a greenish hue.

Upon arrival, we took a trail accessible to all ages, accompanied by a local guide who led us to the other side of the island. There, we found a complete setup with chairs and umbrellas, as well as drinks and snacks typical of the region.
