Lagoa Jacarecica is a coastal lagoon in the state of Alagoas, Brazil, situated near the village of Povoado Jequiazinho and the locality of Jequiá da Praia. The lagoon is a saltwater feature, with its water level influenced by the ocean's tides. The tidal range here is moderate, with low tide heights around -0.35 meters. Paddlers must plan their trips around this tidal cycle, as the water level and potential currents will vary throughout the day. A common access point for paddlers is from Praia do Jequiá, where a combined trail leads to the lagoon. This trail is an out-and-back route covering approximately 3.1 kilometers with minimal elevation gain, suggesting a relatively straightforward portage or launch point from the beach area into the lagoon. The lagoon's setting near the coast means paddlers should be mindful of wind exposure and fetch across the open water, which can create chop. The proximity to Jequiá da Praia indicates the potential for boat traffic, particularly near any channel connecting the lagoon to the sea, requiring vigilance when crossing. The area is part of a region known for other coastal features like Praia da Lagoa Azeda and Lagoa Azeda, suggesting a landscape of interconnected lagoons and beaches. The aesthetic is typical of the Alagoas coast, with satellite imagery showing a defined body of water set against a tropical backdrop. For a paddling trip, the route from Praia do Jequiá to Lagoa Jacarecica and back can be completed in under an hour, making it a suitable short excursion.
