Morro de Sao Paulo is packed with hostels and hotels, mostly concentrated around the town, but with a few along the beaches as well. The accommodations are generally quite reasonable and within easy reach of beaches, restaurants and nightlife.

Canoa Quebrada is stunning. The sand cliffs, the white beaches, they are the jewels of the North East and they are well represented here in Canoa. With stunning sunsets, friendly locals and great hostels and restaurants, it’s hard not to fall in love with the village. The Jangadas in particular are a special sight doting the horizon, as are Canoa’s...

Canoa Quebrada is just a quick jaunt from Fortaleza and as a result it is frequented by many local Brazilians. Compared to Jericoacoara, it’s a beautiful beach, but a lot less hassle to get to making it a popular spot for those with less time to travel Brazil!
You can see some of Canoa Quebrada’s stunning coastline from the sky!

Rivaling Jericoacoara for top spot as the Northeast’s best beach destination, Praia da Pipa, or simply “Pipa”, puts up some tough competition. Majestic cliffs covered in tropical vegetation give way to pristine white sand beaches and brilliantly blue waters. Pipa, like most North Eastern beach towns, began as a small fishing village before it transformed into the surfing...

This is not the place to look for pumping electronic beats and massive clubs. Ilhe Grande is a relaxation and activities paradise with lots of places to get a cold chopp (light beer) after a long day at beach, but not so much in the way of dance clubs.
Street Barracas
The cheapest nightlife in town are the classic Brazilian barracas serving every kind of caipirinha and...
