The Monumento a Iemanjá, located at the sensitive coastal tip of the Camburi Pier in Vitória, is an iconic bronze sculpture dedicated to the deity of the sea. Standing at the northern end of Camburi Beach, it serves as a major cultural, religious, and tourist landmark for the state of Espírito Santo.

Operating an unauthorized or recreational civilian drone in this specific coastal zone is strictly illegal due to critical aeronautical hazards:

    Immediate Runway Glide Path: Geographically, the monument sits directly inside the low-altitude final approach and departure funnel for Runway 06/24 at Vitória Airport (VIX), which is located less than 3 kilometers away. Commercial jets and turboprops pass directly over this section of the coast at minimum operational altitudes while lining up for landing. A drone operating here poses an immediate, catastrophic threat of a mid-air collision.

    Severe Coastal Wind Shear: Because the monument is located at the very end of a pier jutting into the Atlantic Ocean, the area experiences sudden, high-velocity marine wind gusts. A recreational drone can easily lose stabilization, suffer a battery drop, or drift into the flight path of low-flying aircraft or drop onto the pedestrians walking along the pier.

The area is continuously monitored by airport terminal control radars and municipal video networks. Any civilian drone attempting to operate over the monument or the pier without a highly specialized flight plan approved by DECEA via SARPAS NG will be immediately grounded. Operators face equipment confiscation and severe federal criminal charges for endangering national aviation safety.
