Boteco Praia

In a light blue mansion overlooking Iracema Beach, this lively boteco bar is a great spot for an afternoon beer. The choppe (Brazilian draft beer) is always extra cold and the waiters bring deep-fried snacks directly to your table.

Pirata Bar

This pirate-inspired bar is packed every Monday night with what they describe as the "happiest party in South America." Excellent live bands play sertenejo and forró as the crowd takes to the dance floor. Drinks and snacks are available.
