Açude Angicos, also known as Açude Angicos (Arapuá), is a reservoir located in the municipality of José da Penha within the Apodi River basin of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. The water body is formed by the Barragem Angicos dam, whose dam wall, or "parede do açude," is a prominent landmark and serves as a practical reference point for access. Paddlers can find information on specific access points, boat ramps, and facilities for launching kayaks or paddleboards, which are essential for planning a trip onto the water. The reservoir is managed by DNOCS (Departamento Nacional de Obras Contra as Secas), indicating its strategic role in regional water security, which may influence water levels and management practices. The surrounding area is part of the semi-arid Sertão region, which shapes its aesthetic character. The presence of identified access points and facilities suggests it is a destination suitable for recreational paddling. Paddlers should verify any local regulations or restrictions with managing authorities prior to their visit, as is prudent for any managed reservoir.
