Acima do nível do mar, a lagoa possui uma vegetação arbustiva nas margens, típica de restinga. A fauna local inclui muitas espécies ameaçadas de extinção, como lagartos, além de 19 espécies endêmicas, que só ocorrem nas lagoas de Maricá, como o peixe-das-nuvens (Leptolebias citrinipinnis), o ratinho-de-espinho e vários tipos de insetos e plantas. A Orla de Guaratiba foi totalmente revitalizada em 2019, com mais de 19 mil m² quadrados de praça, contemplando toda a extensão da lagoa, possui o acesso para os barcos dos pescadores locais, e um espaço para a limpeza de peixes, iniciativa criada para preservar a marca cultural mais relevante da lagoa, a “pesca de galho”.
