According to the legend,
the rocky crown that forms the Well, Indians' Well or
Anchieta's Well, were intentionally put there by the
Indians following the Jesuits' directions for catching
the fish that could ve trapped during the web. Truth or
myth, in fact some fish has been trapped there and the
so called "well" seem to be human made and not
of a
natural formation. During the web many small marine
animals and plants can be seen such as red and blue anemones, algae
shellfish and various kinds of crabs.
The place has an unique
beauty compounding an unforgettable scenery with the
rocks of the Cibratel Beach. During the flow, when the
sea is calm and the waters are clear, the place used to
be a nice spot to learn how to dive (experienced
divers trying to dive there must know what they are
doing and must ask locals on how and when to try it).
The rocky coast show many
bromelia plants (a kind of pineapple plant which pines
are in fact reddish and pink flowers). A long time ago,
there must have been a marsh behind the set of the Hills
of Paranambuco, behind the beach; some remnants are still there such as
the typical marsh bushes with yellow flowers on the left side of the
beach.
