Santa Maria Pier (Pontão)

Santa Maria seafront

Watch fishermen haul in the day's catch as pelicans dive at golden hour.

The iconic wooden pier stretches into turquoise water where fishermen unload tuna, wahoo and marlin every morning. Pelicans and locals gather in equal measure — it's the beating heart of Santa Maria.
