Pipa in general is beautiful, a small center that becomes pedestrian at night, many shopping and dining establishments. Getting to the beaches is a little difficult, even more so if you go with older people. On all beaches you have to go down at least 150 steps and go up the same on the way back. Getting to Baía Dos Golfinhos is a bit complicated due to the tide, you can only get there through the center of the pipa and walking to the left for approximately 200 meters or by madeiro which is a little further away. We went to Praia do Amor by car (5 min from our hotel), it has parking, showers, etc.

The beach is delightful, warm water, generally without waves, which makes the water crystal clear. The beach is completely surrounded by sand and cliffs, so beautiful! You have to move a little further away from the edge, to get there I need to go deeper (but this can vary, as on different trips I found different situations, like the beach being a little deeper and with some waves.
I think that in just one trip I was not blessed with the presence of dolphins. They always cheer us up!
Tent structure: practically none. Now people have started to leave some tents on the hillside so some vendors come there, but I always take my things with me, just in case.
Access (ONLY AT LOW TIDE): easy, quick walk along the sand, but you must be careful and not walk close to the cliffs, due to the risk of collapse.

Access is via the center beach: go down to the center beach and walk to the left. You must observe the tide table for both the outbound and return journey: access is via the sand, the lower the tide, the easier access. As the tide rises the passage becomes closer to the cliff and more difficult, pay attention to the time. Beautiful, clean beach. Great for bathing. No tents, no loud music. There is the option to rent a chair and umbrella. There is also an option to consume drinks/beer/soft drinks/water. The day is all about contemplating the sea and watching the dolphins that come close to the beach to hunt for sardines.

Praia lindíssima. When the tide is low you can walk through the beach of Centro. It is just to observe or enter the sea in the mud that soon the dolphins appear near you. I loved this experience. Besides dolphins the beach is wonderful. There are also boat rides, but the most time we saw dolphin was well before the boats arrived.

Beautiful bay. We passed with the low sea, and we knew this beach that in one part of the bay has waves to dive and the other a quiet to make the iron. Very few people have a couple of places that serve you drinks and have umbrellas and loungers. You have to be vigilant when the water rises and be able to leave in time...

These beaches are breath taking and seeing dolphins 🐬 is amazing. We were able to hire a kayak to be nearer. To access dolphin bay you have cross the rocks which is easier barefoot & when the tide is out obviously. There are food & drink guys that you hire a sunbed from. All in all you can spend many days just enjoying the nature, the ocean and the ambience. Beautiful

Awesome! I saw a lot of dolphins swimming very close to me! The beach is very clean and beautiful. I don’t think it’s necessary to buy the boat tickets to see the dolphins. In my opinion it is the best Pipa beach.

You can walk to the Bay with the low tide. There are many stones on the way but it's worth going. We haven't seen any dolphins. Do not delay to get back because the tide rises quickly and you can get stuck there. There's some tents on the beach. Wonderful visual.

What a beautiful place. It was one of the most beautiful beaches I visited. Mainly because I saw several dolphins very close to bathers and surfers on the beach. Very clean and well maintained place. The natives there are very polite and helpful.

We took an excursion to Pipa, and passed by the famous Golfinhos beach
The place is relaxing, if the tide is low you can enjoy long walks and take a refreshing bath since the temperature is always high
On our walk we didn't see dolphins, but the place is very nice

cual es el mejor mes para que se vean los delfines? gracias
Written 11 September 2021
Melhor horário é de manhã . Com a maré baixa. Vale muito a pena , o mar parece uma piscina, se a maré der a alta as 14 saia de lá até as 13. Fique de olho na tábua de maré do dia!!!

Hola Elena lei tu comentarios y me parecieron interesantes Estoy planeando ir con mi hija de 23 años a pipa para la 1 semana se septiembre de este año.Que zona me aconsejas hospedarme que no este alejado del centro pero que sea linda. Quiza conoces algun hotel que puedas recomendar. saludos erica
Written 24 June 2019
Hay tantos y tan lindos, depende de tu presupuesto. Oasis es una buena opción ,queda en el centro ,cerca de la playa, tiene un desayuno variado y cerca de exquisitos restaurantes. La magia del lugar es que no te imaginas el verde que oculta ya que de afuera no se ve, está en una galeria.
Espero te sirva

Hola para Recife son muchos días. Es una ciudad para conocer en menos tiempo y todos te alertan sobre la inseguridad del lugar. Visitá ahí Olinda (aunque es mas atractiva en la época del Carnaval).
Se puede viajar en auto perfectamente a Pipa, hay hospedaje variado. Es un lugar muy lindo y con atractivos diversos para conocer

Hola la opción es viajar desde pipa o alojar directamente en Baires dos golfinhos?
Written 2 April 2019

a veces se ven delfines, es muy variable.
la playa es muy linda y pipa es muy pintoresca

Hola cuanto demoras en ir caminando desde la playa del centro o desde la playa de madeiro muchas gracias
Written 29 March 2019
Desde el centro tomando como referencia la playa, en 10 minutos de caminata estas en Golfinhos. Cuando llegás a Pipa tenés que conseguirte un folleto turístico que te indique el horario de las mareas.
