Maragogi

Maragogi is right in the middle of "Costa Dourada" (Golden Coast), a beautiful passage on the Northeastern coast, between Maceió and Recife.

Maragogi was a village called "Gamela", in 1887 became a town and was called Isabel, in honor to the princess who freed the blacks from the slavery. Later, in 1892, it received the name of Maragogi because of the river that flows out there. The name, according to historians, comes from Marahub-gy, or river of "Maraubas". Other interpretations translate "Mair-aqui-gy-po" as free, wide river.
