Tourism and sports development in Saquarema

Overview

Saquarema is implementing various initiatives to promote regional tourism and economic development. In mid-September 2026, the city hosted the WSL Rema festival at Itaúna Beach from September 14 to 20. Featuring the QS 6.000 International surfing competition, the event included skateboarding, music, cinema, and wellness activities, while also emphasizing sustainability and environmental discussions. Local officials noted that hosting such large-scale international events attracts global athletes and enthusiasts, helping to mitigate tourism seasonality and establish the municipality as a sports capital.

Following this, the inaugural Costa do Sol Tourism Festival took place from September 21 to 23 at the Saquarema Event Center. Organized by the Costa do Sol Tourism Development Council (Condetur Costa do Sol) with support from the Saquarema City Hall, the event brought together representatives from 13 municipalities to promote regional integration. The festival provided a platform for public managers and industry professionals to discuss sector growth, destination valuation, and shared challenges through lectures and debates. Tourism Secretary Davi Barcelos emphasized that regional integration is essential for turning local potential into job creation and income generation.
