Abstract

The objective of this research was to make an inventory of the geomorphosites of the Piaui coast. Despite the short length of its coastline - 66km - the area under study, is marked by a variety of geomorphological features, such as: beach strip; dune fields; river plains; fluvial-marine plains; fluvial-lake plains and coastal board. The methodology was based on cabinet research, field research and mapping of geomorphosites. The geomorphosites Delta do Parnaíba, Pedra do Sal, Lagoa do Portinho, Cardoso / Camurupim Estuary, Macapá, and Ubatuba / Timonha Estuary have geotouristic potential and all can be used for didactic and scientific purposes. The importance of geotouristic mapping, the indication of didactic scripts to assist teachers and students in the field research, as well as the elaboration of interpretative means is emphasized.
