The Lagoa do Frio Municipal Nature Park is in the municipality of Canindé de São Francisco, Sergipe. It has an area of 278.99 hectares (689.4 acres).[1] The park is in the extreme northwest of the state, near the border with Bahia.[2] It is one of three conservation units in the caatinga biome, the others being the Grota do Angico Natural Monument and the Rio São Francisco Natural Monument.[3] Operated at the municipal level, the park has not created any agreement for cooperation in developing studies.[4] Little has been written about the park other than a study of fragmentation of the caatinga biome.[5]
