The community of fishermen in Rio Vermelho organizes the festivities on the beach beneath the statue dedicated to Iemanja, the Goddess of the Sea according to the tradition of the Afro-Brazilian religion Candomblé. Starting in the early morning hours of February second, thousands of candomblé followers, tourists and visitors line up on the beach to put flowers, perfume and other presents in the water to celebrate the orixá of the waters, observing anxiously if the offerings are being accepted by the goddess Yemanjá or returned to the beach by the waves.
