A different experience in Costa do Sauípe, those who come to our resort can visit the Berimbau Project on the Costa do Sauípe, an incredible workshop to participate in during your vacation trip.
The project is organized by the Berimbau Institute, a partnership established through Copartt (Tupinambá Braided Handicraft Cooperative), which offers the practice of braiding workshops on piaçava straw with artisans.
How the activity works
The handicraft of the piaçava (a palm tree) is one of the traditional activities of the communities in the region. During the workshops, basic craft techniques are passed and you can learn, in practice, how to assemble various accessories.
At the end, it is possible to bring a small piece developed during class. They are open to guests and require no prior appointment, so when you arrive at the resort, just search and start practicing
