Boa Viagem is a neighborhood in Recife, Pernambuco in the wealthy southern zone of the municipality. The neighborhood has one of the most visited beaches in Northeastern Brazil, Boa Viagem beach. The neighborhood has a population as of 2010 of 122,922 inhabitants, and an area of 753 hectares (2.91 sq mi).[1]
Thousands regularly gather on its wide sandy beaches that stretch for 8 km (5.0 mi). However, the beach is plagued by tiger shark attacks since Suape port was built in the 1990s, thought to have disrupted the sharks' behavior.[2] Boa Viagem is the longest stretch of urbanized seafront in Brazil; its coastal reef calms the waves and helps keep the water at 25 °C (77 °F).[3] Pina, Recife and Piedade, Jaboatão are the neighboring beaches.
The district is a center of the city's social life. It hosts one of the biggest shopping centers in Brazil and South America—Shopping Center Recife[4] with 465 stores and nearly 2,000,000 square feet (190,000 m2) of area. Boa Viagem is also home to Shopping Rio Mar, a high-end shopping center located along the coast of the river Capibaribe.[5][6]
Boa Viagem had a human development index in 2000 with 0.964, rivalling that of some Scandinavian countries, Japan, and Canada.[7]
