salinas beach (praia das salinas) is located in the
jurujuba neighborhood of
niterói, facing northeast across the
são francisco cove.
very close to to the
beach of samanguaiá, its
position on the inside of
guanabara bay makes for calm waters
that completely engulf the sand in times of high tide.
this phenomenon owes its existence to the
geographical nature of the beach, alluded to in another name by
which it is known -
praia de várzea,
or lowland beach.
