Beach Nature / Park

Palms and gardens line the upscale avenue in the Boa Viagem Beach neighborhood with a beach by the same name that's popular for young 20 or 30-something travelers. The beach and parks offer many sports such as tennis, volleyball, football (soccer), and personal training with free equipment. As one of the most visited beaches in Northeastern Brazil, kiosks furnish comforts for you to rent such as chairs and umbrellas for enjoying the crystal-blue waters. This neighborhood has many outdoor cafes, restaurants, and a lively nightclub scene, which is its signature draw for tourism. Be aware that the neighborhood and beach has many people that ask for money or goods while you relax on the beach--especially if you look like you are spending a lot of money. Swimming and surfing is not recommended, especially after dark because aggressive tiger and bull sharks swim throughout these waters. It couldn't be easier to arrange your visit to Boa Viagem Beach and many more Recife attractions: make an itinerary online using Inspirock's Recife day trip planning website .

  Linda praia, que lembra muito a música do pernambucano Alceu Valença "La Belle de Jour". Mesmo estando de passagem por Recife, tive que molhar os pés na água desse lugar paradisíaco! Linda praia!!!  more »

  Beautiful beach, but I didn't have the guts to come in because of the danger on account of the Sharks. But it has a wide promenade to walk, kiosks and close to bars and restaurants very good. I recommend staying nearby!

  Clean water beach, better during the week to enjoy better the natural pools formed by the reefs. Avoid open sea areas because of shark attack. There are numerous tents with cold beer and caipirinhas. Sea food is available from passing by vendors.
