The Manguaba Lagoon is the largest in Alagoas, characterized by its brackish water ecosystem.
The waterfront project was designed as part of a broader municipal effort to redevelop the urban riverfront and lagoon edges in Pilar.
The location supports local traditional fishing practices, which can be observed from the walkway.
The structure connects the urban center of Pilar directly to the margins of the lagoon, facilitating easier access to the water's edge.
