History
In the 16th century, the region where Barra de São Miguel is today was a Caeté indigenous village. It became a village linked to the village of Alagoas (now Marechal Deodoro), and later became a district of the current municipality of São Miguel dos Campos, from which it emancipated itself. Natural port of arrival in the region, it developed economically with the implantation of a shipyard and, since the 90s, it has become one of the main tourist destinations in the state.
