The best photos of Maceio aren't at the obvious landmarks. The real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot.

Maceio is the capital of Alagoas on Brazil's northeastern coast, famous for its impossibly turquoise natural pools, coconut-lined beaches, and a walkable waterfront that showcases the beauty of Brazil's tropical coast.
