Praia das Conchas

One of the main environmental gems of the Lagos Region will be returned to nature and will be car-free. The State Institute for the Environment (Inea) and the Cabo Frio City Hall approved the environmental recovery project for Praia das Conchas, in Peró. Before the summer, 18 kiosks will be removed from the edge, returning it to the formation of the old dunes and the restinga vegetation, typical of the place. Cars will also stay away from the beach, which is in the Pau-Brasil Environmental Protection Area and Costa do Sol State Park (PECS). A large parking lot will be opened in a degraded area near Avenida dos Pescadores and bathers will arrive at the beach, two kilometers away, in a jardineira-type bus. Inea will also install buoys at sea to prevent navigation in the protected area.

The Praia das Conchas recovery project was approved this Thursday, a week after park rangers from Inea discovered a new sambaqui in Morro do Vigia, between Praia das Conchas and Praia do Peró. The discovery came shortly after fighting an arson attack at the site. Shellmounds are archaeological sites where there are traces of scientific interest that can help tell the story of humanity. The word sambaqui comes from the Tupi: tamba (shellfish, shell) and ki (heap):

-- The sambaqui is located on a shore of Morro do Vigia and was discovered accidentally. We are preparing the report to deliver to the National Museum, which has researchers to study the discovery. Once the study is completed, we will include a new trail in the park's Management Plan so that people can see this new attraction in the region up close – said the head of Costa do Sol State Park, Sérgio Ricardo Rocha Soares.

At the access to Praia das Conchas, next to the parking lot, a portico will be built to control access and a tourist information post, in addition to a sub-headquarters of PECS to function as accommodation for park rangers and to store two combat equipment. to forest fires.

— We closed a co-management agreement with Inea to revitalize Praia das Conchas. It is the realization of an old dream that will come true with the creation of the park and the partnership with Inea - said the mayor of Cabo Frio, Alair Corrêa, who appointed a team of urban planners to prepare the executive project of the portico and the parking lot. .

State Environment Secretary Carlos Minc said that, of all the state parks, Costa do Sol has the greatest potential for ecotourism:

— Beauties attract many people. That is why it is necessary to work hard on prevention and care so that the frequency is harmonious with the environment and non-destructive. The intention is to combine ecotourism that generates green jobs and the preservation of the beach, dunes and biodiversity - explained the secretary.

Less than five kilometers from the center of Cabo Frio and on the way to Búzios, Praia das Conchas, the first stretch of Praia do Peró, is very popular with tourists because of the crystal clear waters, free from pollution. The rocky shore is also a refuge for marine animals that were cataloged, after nine years of diving, by biologists who study the biodiversity of the place. Among them is Vinícius Padula, a carioca who is doing his doctorate at the University of Munich, Germany, and who has been diving into Conchas since he was eight years old:

— The beaches of Peró and Conchas need to be transformed into an extractive reserve because of the environmental wealth of the coast. It is also necessary to make bathers aware not to leave garbage on the beach sand. Debris, mainly plastic, decimates marine fauna, as well as trawling — defended the biologist, who is also studying, with other researchers, the islands of Cabo Frio, very close to the coast.
