Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

One more destroyed paradise beach.
I can't understand the Brazilian way when they go to the beach? They gadering thousands people on a small spot, having food and drinks enjoying their self. In the afternoon they throw all garbage in the sand. Praia dos Caneiros is dirty! There is two big big restaurants or Moore like amjusmentparks where all thousands of people is packed toghter like crowded fish.
There in between on the beach is some sandy spots but they are private.
Don't waist a day here if you don't like thousands of people, unfriendly staff non English spoken at the restaurant and dirt.

Firstly you have to pay for the access to the beach 15 reais per person just to touch the sand. The beach is beautiful but over crowded and overrated. There is plenty more wild and beautiful places all around without some nasty businessmen who bought land around the beach and charge people for access to it. Shame!!!

My husband and I drove here from Porto de Galinhas for the day. It was about an hour and a half ride. Beautiful ride too. We went to a restaurant/park called Bora Bora for the day. We took a private boat ride that was about 2 hours long to some of the popular stops. The area was absolutely beautiful. Well worth the trip. We did the boat ride, ate lunch then walked the beach and natural pools. One of the best days of our trip

We just got back a week ago; we stayed 17 nights in a beautiful bungalow. We will return for sure. Don't bother searching for a better beach in Brasil, deserted beaches, magnificent views and colour changing sea views makes it pure, simple and perfect to relax and enjoy. I won't tell the name of the place we stayed at because it should stay anonymous, like a secret place in paradise to avoid mass tourism which may spoil this untouchable nature of coco nuts plantations along Carneiros Beach.

It is a stunning landscape, sandy beach with natural pools shaped by reefs and tides, warm waters with turquoise colors, a beautiful small church on the beach and tropical greenery in the surrounding area. This is the perfect picture if you can get rid of the crowds, the catamarans, the speedboats, the vendors and the noise.

This is the most beautiful beach in Brazil. You will only find more beautiful places in Fernando de Noronha, out of the continent. It´s almost desert, especially at night. Whe the tide is low you will find several natural pools where you can see all kinds of fish. Unforgetable!

This is a place you must see for yourself. This is probably one of the top 5 Beaches in Brazil. This beach rivals Ipanema and Copacabana beach if not it's better. Crystal clear water, sand banks in the middle of the ocean, natural pools and the history behind it.

Peaceful, tranquil, beautiful, safe, and charming. We went off-season and it was great. We even stayed longer than initially planned

Ok, so wife and I just stayed a weekend at beach of the sheep. I didn't see any sheep, haha.
A weekend isn't enough time to explore much. We have friends there that own rentals near the beach and so that helps, and they also knew some tour guides we were able to hook up with.
I'm not going to tell you that this beach is more beautiful than Porto de Galinhas, or some beaches near Cabo de Santo Agostinho, but it is very beautiful. And there is the one place with the healing ... rejuvenating ... mud, ok, well you just have to find that for yourself.
Anyway, would I recommend Praia Dos Carneiros. Absolutely!

We were very disappointed because we heard so much about Praia dos Carneiros and when we arrived there after a long driving, found out that it was all private property. So, if you want to go and visit it, you need to stay in one of the resorts or to go to a restaurant. It is a shame that such beauty is not freely accessible! We were frustrated and disappointed. Someone should do something about this!

Written 11 April 2020
Tudo bem, setembro já é uma época com pouca chuva. Acredito eu que vai pegar dias ensolarados, prepara a câmera fotográfica por q vai tirar muita foto linda, Porto de galinhas tem Uber sim, não deixe de fazer o passeio na praia dos carneiros, por q no passeio vc vai em todos os pontos turísticos da praia. Procure fechar o passeio antecipado, uma sugestão @carneirostour_ 81 981871310
