Ecoassociados is an NGO dedicated to the conservation of sea turtles through beach monitoring and environmental education. The organization showcases the importance of sea turtles and their endangered status through museum exhibits featuring anatomy pieces, nest photos, and educational tours. Visitors can also meet Katia, a juvenile hawksbill turtle and the organization's mascot. The NGO is run by biology students who gain hands-on experience working with local marine life.
Awesome! Run by biology students from the area who usually work there for a month to gain experience about the local animals

(Translated by Google) I didn't have a good experience with the person who was there when I visited. I thought it would be amazing to learn about the lives of turtles and everything, but unfortunately the person who was doing the "internship" ruined the visit and I was disappointed, because she was bored of having to stay there and served me with a bad attitude and got stressed every time I asked her something. I was so disappointed. I had heard good recommendations about the place and unfortunately this person ruined it. Maybe they could guide and put more prepared people to serve and explain more about the place. I wasn't even able to visit or even take a "peek" at the animals that were there. I was so upset with the situation. My visit was in March 2023. (Original) Eu não tive uma boa experiência com a pessia que estava no local quando visitei, achei que seria incrível conhecer sobre a vida das tartarugas e tudo mais, mas infelizmente a pessoa que estava de “estágio” estragou a visitação e fiquei desapontada, pois ela estava entediada de ter que ficar no local e me atendeu com péssima vontade e ficava estressada cada vez que eu perguntava alguma coisa. Fiquei tão decepcionada. Havia escutado boas recomendações do local e infelizmente essa pessoa estragou. Quem sabe orientar e colocar pessoas mais preparadas para atender e explicar mais sobre o local. Inclusive não pude fazer a visitação e nem mesmo dar uma “olhadinha” nos animais que estavam no local. Fiquei tão chateado com a situação. Minha visitação foi em março de 2023.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful conservation project. I loved the visit, everything was very well explained. They taught us about the varieties of turtles, their eating habits and the threats they face. A jar full of materials found inside them is frightening because of the carelessness with which we deal with the trash we produce. (Original) Um belo projeto de conservação. Adorei a visita, tudo muito bem explicado. Ensinaram sobre as variedades de tartarugas, seus hábitos alimentares e as ameaças que enfrentam. Um pote cheio de materiais encontrados dentro delas, assusta pela descaso com que lidamos com o lixo que produzimos.

(Translated by Google) Ecoassociados is an NGO whose goal is to conserve sea turtles, both by monitoring beaches and by providing environmental education, showing how important sea turtles are and how threatened they are. The museum has exhibits to demonstrate the species, anatomical parts, photos of turtles in their nests, and a whole tour to learn more about the animals' habits and characteristics. Afterwards, you can meet the organization's mascot, a juvenile hawksbill turtle, Katia! (Original) A ecoassociados é uma ONG que tem por finalidade fazer a conservação das tartarugas marinhas, tanto pelo monitoramento de praias quanto pela educação ambiental, mostrando o quão importante são as tartarugas marinhas e o quão ameaçadas elas estão.

Podendo depois, conhecer a mascote da organização, uma tartaruga de pente juvenil, Katia!

(Translated by Google) Covid19: Call before you go because access to the turtle tanks was closed. We took a tour of the turtle room/museum. I thought it was worth it because the biologist's explanation helped us understand more about these incredible animals and their problems (usually caused by humans). It's worth paying because the resources are used for preservation. (Original) Covid19: Liguem antes de ir pois o acesso aos tanques de tartarugas estava fechado. Fizemos um tour pela sala/museu das tartarugas. Eu achei que valeu a pena pois a explicação da bióloga nos fez entender mais sobre estes incríveis animais e seus problemas (geralmente causados pelo ser humano). Vale a pena pagar pois os recursos são usados para preservação.

Maihai Porto

4.8
(188)
Inn
Maihai Porto is a holiday park located in the City-Centre district of Porto de Galinhas, Brazil. The inn offers a fantastic structure and boasts a perfect location on Rua das Umbrinhas, near a seafood restaurant. Guests have praised the pleasant environment and highlighted the exceptional service provided by the staff, particularly mentioning Gil for his charming welcome and attention to detail. Visitors also appreciated the captivating hospitality of Ju (Judite) and delicious drinks prepared by Gil (Gilmara).
I recently stayed at Maihai Hotel for a week, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The location couldn’t be more perfect — it’s less than a minute’s walk from the best part of the beach and right by the heart of the city, making everything I wanted to explore within easy reach. The hotel itself has a cozy, intimate feel, as it’s small enough that you truly feel at home rather than just another guest. The rooms are spacious, beautifully furnished, and thoughtfully designed to ensure a comfortable stay. And the food deserves its own mention — it’s absolutely delicious and, in my opinion, the best in town, with fresh ingredients and plenty of variety that kept each meal exciting throughout my stay. But what truly makes Maihai special is the staff. They’re some of the best I’ve ever encountered, always friendly, attentive, and seemingly able to anticipate needs before I even had to ask. Their warmth and professionalism added a unique touch to my experience, making it feel like a home away from home. I’ll definitely be returning on my next visit and can’t recommend Maihai highly enough!
Ariane D — Google review
Maihai Porto is by far one of the best places I've been in life!! They put the hospitality in new heights with their amazing architecture, friendly staff, ambient sound, landscaping and great food. I felt so welcome and home that was difficult to say goodbye (Thats why im coming back net year already) . The place itself is well located one block from the beach front and the main road so you are a walkway distance to the famous pools, boat rides, restaurants and all the city fuzz at night. Despite of being so central, the rooms are very silent and the architecture makes you feel like you are in a secluded and private space. Everywhere you look there is beautiful plants and connection to nature even when you are simply having breakfast or in their gym. There is also a natural sauna, massage and hydrotherapy in the site. I even got myself some souvenirs from their merchandise cabinet that will make me remember fondly of this place wherever I go. Cant wait to go back soon!!

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful and well-maintained pousada, but the real highlight is the staff. Special thanks to Gil and Thiago. They helped us with our needs during our stay. Special mention for their attention to the fact that one of us was vegan. Even though they didn't have many options on the menu and for breakfast, they immediately went out of their way to find lots of different options. Well done!!! (Original) Pousada molto bella e ben tenuta ma la vera eccellenza è lo staff. Un ringraziamento speciale a Gil e Thiago. Ci hanno aiutato durante la nostra permanenza con le nostre esigenze. Menzione speciale per l’attenzione al fatto che uno di noi fosse vegano. Nonostante non avessero molte opzioni nel menù e nella colazione si sono subito dati da fare per trovare tante opzioni diverse. Bravissimi!!!

(Translated by Google) The service is so great – it really stands out! The two young men at the bar/pool were just so nice! Absolutely positive: great cocktails and drinks, a great sandwich, and a good breakfast! However, the room is very expensive for its size and amenities. The hotel could charge such a price if it were on the beach. But it isn't. (Original) Der Service ist so toll - er fällt wirklich positiv auf! Die zwei jungen Männer an der Bar / am Pool sind einfach so nett gewesen! Wirklich absolut positiv aufgefallen: Tolle Cocktails und Drinks, super Sandwich und gutes Frühstück! Jedoch ist das Zimmer für die Zimmergröße und Ausstattung sehr teuer. Das Hotel könnte so einen Preis verlangen, wenn es am Strand wäre. Ist es aber nicht.

We had a beautiful stay in MaiHai. The breakfast was wonderful and the room (with a balkony) nice and spacious. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The place has a Spa that offers great massage thank you @Mara🤩 the hotel has a nice swimming pool and it is located next to the main, lively area with loads of restaurants but also close to the beach access.I highly recommend!

(Translated by Google) The inn is beautiful, the location is the best it could be, the rooms are very clean, but I found the accommodation I stayed in to be small, and I missed a wardrobe for more storage space. The shower has no pressure and doesn't produce much water, and the hairdryer in the room is quite weak. The parking lot is disorganized; the parking spaces are locked with chains, and a staff member has to open the chain every time you need to leave or return to the hotel. However, each chain has a different key, and the keys and padlocks are not numbered, which makes you waste a lot of time waiting for them to find the right one. The staff, in general, are super friendly, helpful, and attentive. However, I had a rather annoying situation during my stay. The rules stated that visitors could only enter with hotel authorization. Since I was traveling with a friend who was staying elsewhere, I asked him for permission to accompany me only to the common areas, which are outside. He didn't use the shower or the pool, only the tables and chairs. At no point did he enter the room, especially since I already knew that wasn't allowed. The next day, I received a call from the hotel manager, who was extremely rude, saying she'd seen on the cameras that my friend had entered the room, when that never happened, and I wasn't even with him at the time. I asked to see the footage, but she simply refused, was incredibly rude, and hung up. I thought it was absurd to be accused without any evidence and still be treated this way. I paid a lot for the stay and expected much more respect and professionalism. (Original) A pousada é linda, a localização é a melhor que poderia ter, os quartos são bem limpos, mas achei a acomodação que fiquei pequena, e senti falta de um guarda-roupa para ter mais espaço onde guardar as coisas. O chuveiro não tem pressão e não sai muita água, e o secador do quarto é bem fraco. O estacionamento é desorganizado, as vagas são fechadas com correntes, e um funcionário precisa abrir a corrente toda vez que você precisa sair ou voltar para o hotel, mas cada corrente tem uma chave diferente, e as chaves e cadeados não tem numeração, o que faz você perder um tempão esperando eles encontrarem a chave certa. Os funcionários, em geral, são super simpáticos, prestativos e atenciosos. Porém, tive uma situação bem chata durante a minha estadia. No regulamento dizia que visitantes só podiam entrar com autorização do hotel. Como eu viajei com um amigo que estava hospedado em outro lugar, pedi autorização pra ele me acompanhar apenas nas áreas comuns, que são as externas. Ele não utilizou o chuveiro nem a piscina, somente a parte das mesas e cadeiras. Em nenhum momento ele entrou no quarto, até porque eu já sabia que isso não era permitido. No dia seguinte, recebi uma ligação da gerente do hotel, que foi extremamente grossa, dizendo que tinha visto pelas câmeras que meu amigo tinha entrado na acomodação, sendo que isso nunca aconteceu, e nesse momento eu nem estava com ele. Pedi pra ver as imagens e ela simplesmente se recusou, foi super mal-educada e desligou. Achei um absurdo ser acusada sem prova nenhuma e ainda ser tratada dessa forma. Paguei caro pela estadia e esperava muito mais respeito e profissionalismo.

(Translated by Google) The experience was incredible, the hotel is super clean and organized. It has a heated pool, sauna, and hot tub that are cleaned daily, and towels are provided for use, which you can take to the beach. The breakfast has a great variety, and you can even order fresh tapioca and crepioca, as well as grilled cheese with honey (which was delicious). The staff are very friendly and polite. (Special mention to Thiago, who was super welcoming and nice to us.) The room is spacious, has air conditioning, and a TV with internet. The shower stall is large and also has a clothesline. Our room had a problem with a clogged shower drain, but it was resolved quickly on the first day. (Original) A experiência foi incrível, o hotel é super limpo e organizado. Possui piscina aquecida, sauna e ofurô que são limpos diariamente, ainda é disponibilizado toalhas para uso, podendo levá-las para a praia. O café da manhã possui uma grande variedade, ainda pode ser feito tapioca e crepioca fresquinhos, além de queijo grelhado com mel ( que estava uma delícia) Os funcionários são muito simpáticos e educados. ( uma atenção especial ao Thiago que foi super receptivo e legal conosco) O quarto é amplo, possui ar condicionado e tv com internet. O box do chuveiro é grande e ainda possui varal. Nosso quarto havia um problema com o ralo entupido do chuveiro, mas foi logo resolvido no primeiro dia.

Piscinas Naturais de Porto de Galinhas is a sought-after destination in the northeast, known for its pristine and transparent natural pools that captivate visitors of all ages. Tourists can enjoy activities like taking photos on rafts, snorkeling, and walking through the sea during low tide to see the corals and fish. The tour usually starts from the center of the destination and is done on rafts.
Beautiful place. Water is pristine clear, but you have to keep eyes on the tides to be able to enjoy and have a complete experience

For me, this place is full of scammers because I'm probably disappointed with how Maragozi was, everyone was coming back. It's probably everywhere. They try to rip you off, starting from the parking lot. Someone calls you "park" and goes there. Turn this way, the wrong way. Take a boat at the end. Take a raft or a kayak. Swim 6 meters and tell them to dive to see the fish. Then they take you back. For me, this isn't an attraction that can be considered paid. You could just as easily grab a mask and go somewhere quiet. It's completely overrated and just a scam. I think there are more people, sunscreen, and everything else in the water than fish. So, it's just a guy with trained fish feeding them and saying he can take a photo, for an additional fee, of course. So, absolutely not. I don't recommend such places. I've been here at least in the main port and in Maragozi.

(Translated by Google) A natural spectacle: crystal-clear waters formed between coral reefs, ideal for floating and observing colorful fish — a raft trip or a walk during low tide makes it all the more special. Plan for low tide, bring a snorkel or water shoes, and enjoy one of the most iconic sights on the Pernambuco coast. (Original) Um espetáculo natural: águas cristalinas formadas entre recifes de coral, ideais para flutuar e observar peixes coloridos — o passeio de jangada ou a caminhada durante a maré baixa tornam tudo ainda mais especial. Planeje para a maré baixa, leve snorkel ou sapatilhas aquáticas e aproveite um dos maiores cartões-postais do litoral pernambucano.

I came in craving moqueca—left wondering if I actually ate moqueca or just a hot bowl of confusion. The dish looked the part, but tasted like someone whispered “coconut milk” from the kitchen and then ran out of seasoning halfway through. Two stars because the pot was cute and I didn’t need a first aid kit afterwards. But as far as moqueca goes… My daughter got the kids beef stroganoff, the sauce was suspiciously red (tasted like 80% ketchup). Beef was though. Husband got the salmon - fishy to say the least. Let’s just say the best part of his dish was the tomato garnish. Service was slow but friendly—like they knew the food wasn’t great and were gently preparing us for it.

Mr Duck - Burgers & Dogs is a great place to enjoy a delectable vegetarian sandwich at an affordable price in Porto de Galinhas. It stands out as one of the few establishments offering this option. The sandwiches are so delicious that many visitors find themselves enjoying them on a daily basis, whether dining on-site or taking their meal to go.

Also, keep in mind that they're very clean, both in the bathrooms and with regard to the food! Totally recommended. (Original) Excelente local. Considerando que el local es de comida rápida, hamburguesas y hot dogs, tienen comida a un precio muy accesible y la atención es de maravilla! También tener en cuenta que tienen mucha higiene tanto en baños como en lo referente a la comida! Totalmente recomendado.

(Translated by Google) We made a simple order, 3 cheeseburgers, 3 fries and 3 sodas, it took an hour to bring, the only good thing is that they didn't charge us much and we paid one less for each thing (Original) Fizemos um pedido simples, 3 cheeseburgers, 3 batatas fritas e 3 refrigerantes, demorou uma hora para trazer, a única coisa boa é que não nos cobraram bem e pagamos um a menos por cada coisa

(Translated by Google) If you're in Porto de Galinhas, I recommend trying the burger here. It's an artisanal burger joint where you'll find excellent quality burgers, delicious portions, and a wonderful hot dog. A 60-cm hot dog costs only R$28. The portions are huge, averaging R$44. Excellent service; from what I spoke with the waiter, everyone who works there is related... (Original) Se for até Porto de Galinhas, recomendo experimentar o hambúrguer deste local. É uma hambúrgueria artesanal, onde você encontra hambúrguer de Excelente qualidade , porções deliciosas e um hot dog maravilhoso, tem um hot dog de 60 cm e custa somente R$ 28. As porções são enormes e custam em média R$ 44. Excelente atendimento, pelo que conversei com o rapaz que nos atendeu todos que trabalham são parentes...

Restaurante Beijupirá

$$$$expensive
Seafood restaurant
Restaurante Beijupirá is a classic spot in Porto de Galinhas, having opened its doors in 1991 when the destination was still considered exotic. The restaurant's playful decor and nouvelle-northeastern dishes featuring a fusion of fish, seafood, fruits, and regional herbs have made it stand out.
Everything was great. Food was delicious, waiter helpful and woman’s restroom was spotless. The atmosphere was great too, my daughter ordered some vegan food and I tried it and perfect too.

Great place if you want to have decent food in Porto dos Galinhas. Greet service as well in a quiet atmosphere. I tried their Moqueca and it was a success! Good wine list!
Vincent M — Google review
Such a delightful experience in the heart of Porto de Galinhas. The best restaurant of the region, that is for sure. Every dish we tried was delicious. The fish is amazing. The dessert was superb. If you’re around Carneiros, Porto de Galinhas or Olinda, you should definitely check it out!
Cynara B — Google review
So delicious! And the staff was extremely nice and accommodating. We were a group of 12 people (7 adults, 5 children 5yo and under) and the staff was so helpful and on top of things. We had an absolutely amazing lunch here.

Delicious food, Beautiful, picturesque place, great caipirinha and super nice and friendly staff. We tried the fish with mango sauce, muqueca and more. All felt fresh and tasted amazing.

The main dish with shrimp for 2, with curry and tropical fruits is a disappointment in overall. The shrimp is not very present and you end up eating more fruits than shrimp. In addition to that, the rice included, a small bowl smaller than my hand, is not enough for 2. If you ask saying it's not enough, they will gladly say they will replenish it, although they'll will charge you the end. Considering that the waiters don't help you serve, don't help you with the wine, disappear, never smile and that the dishes are far from cheap, you are welcome I wrote this review so you can pass very far from this place. I was there on May, 16, 2018.

Ristorante Mamma Mia

4.4
(970)
$$$$affordable
Pizza restaurant
Italian restaurant
Ristorante Mamma Mia is a charming Italian restaurant located near the tourist area of Porto de Galinhas. The owner, an Italian native, ensures that the pasta is always perfectly al dente and the pizza, a popular choice among diners, is made in a wood-fired oven with thin crust. The restaurant's carefully decorated interior and live music create a pleasant atmosphere. The staff are professional and efficient, adhering to all necessary COVID-19 protocols.
We came all the way from the United States with a Chef on our trip. We have to say this is one of the top pizza places in Porto de Galinhas. This is the only authentic Italian pizza you will find in the area. The owners are straight from Italy and I promise, it shows. So many places in Porto de Galinhas sell pizza (because the basic ingredients are cheap) but this is one of only two that doesn’t use cheap ingredients. This one has an advantage because the family is from Italy so they use that and add a local twist. Advice to tourists- if the restaurant doesn’t specialize in the thing you want then don’t waste your money. If they do a hundred things, what can they possibly do great? Mamma Mia specializes in home made, Italian style pizza made in a real fire pizza oven. Many of the other, expensive places buy their dough. Not Mamma Mia. It is made in house. Give them a try. You won’t be disappointed!

The best pizza we have tried during our vacation to Porto de Galinhas and Maracaípe. Really good quality and very similar to Italian pizza. The staff is very attentive and polite.

One of the few places that have great Italian style pizza. The restaurant is carefully decorated in style and in combination with the live music a very nice / chill atmosphere is created. The staff are professionals, quick and follow all the protocol for not spreading covid-19.

Lovely Italian restaurant close to the touristic area of Porto de Galinhas. The service was very good, the pizza we ordered was made in a wood oven, and the dough was definitely artisanal and freshly made. The food came by very fast and was extremely tasty and hot!

I went 2 nights in a row. Why? The food, the service, the atmosphere. What a great place. Everything was fresh, fast and fantastic!
Robert C — Google review
We had a Calabria pizza. It came fast and it was very good. The service was good as well. The reason for the 3 stars is that I asked the server to pack the leftover (3 slices) and they literally threw the pizza in a plastic bag. I couldn’t believe it. If you don’t want to spend money with pizza box, at least use a plastic plate or something similar. Look at the picture!
Karen G — Google review
The chef is Italian and thus knows how to make amazing Italien style pizza. Don’t miss out if you crave a piece of European pizza with high quality ingredients
