Maribondo is a municipality in the state of Alagoas in southeastern Brazil, located about 120 kilometers northwest of the state capital, Maceio. The municipality covers an area of about 342 square kilometers and has a population of about 15,000 (2020 data), with agriculture and animal husbandry as the main economic pillars.
Maribundo is located in the Brazilian tropics and has a tropical wet and dry seasonal climate, with an average annual temperature of about 25°C. The hilly terrain around the municipality is dominated by the tributaries of the São Francisco River, which runs through the region and provides an important source of water for irrigation. The vegetation is characterized by the Catinga community (tropical dry shrub forest).
The economy is based on cotton and corn cultivation and cattle breeding, with small-scale agro-processing industries developing in recent years. The annual St. Joan's Festival, held in June, is an important traditional cultural event in the region, with specialties such as cassava products and barbecued meat. The town center retains the Catholic Church building from the colonial period.
It is connected to the major cities of the state via the BR-316 highway, and is about a 2-hour drive from Maceio Airport. Tourist highlights include the surrounding natural waterfall landscape and traditional farm experiences for eco-tourism enthusiasts to explore.
