The Rio Camurupim is a coastal river in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, flowing into the Atlantic Ocean at Praia de Camurupim near the municipality of Nísia Floresta. The river is characterized by its connection to a rich mangrove ecosystem, which is a notable sight for paddlers who can admire the local flora and fauna during their journey. The paddling experience on the river is often part of a broader coastal exploration, with tours sometimes departing from nearby Tabatinga Beach and crossing several rivers and lakes, passing close to the Nísia Floresta Lagoon. The overall character of paddling here is calm and scenic, focused on nature observation. A typical paddling route on the Camurupim River lasts approximately one hour. The adjacent Praia de Camurupim is a major access point and destination, known for its calm, clear natural pools formed by a reef wall at low tide, with warm water and soft sand. This beach is easy to reach, attracts lovers of active vacations like paddle boarding and kayaking, and is considered suitable for travelers with children due to its gentle conditions. Boat ramps are available. The area is also noted for other tourist activities, including visits to the Arituba Lagoon, which is perfect for pedalos and kayaks, and tours that pass landmarks like the Barreira do Inferno rocket launch site.
