Options in Caraiva

Day

Before you go anywhere in Caraiva be sure; No hurries. Time is your ally here and everything happens more slowly.

In the morning a sea bath or river bath is essential. The surrounding beaches are an invitation for walkings and new discoveries.

At Barra beach, where the river meets the sea, it is also where natives and tourists meet before hiking, or in the late afternoon to watch the sunset and drink coconut water.

There are several bars and restaurants along Caraíva beach and on the river bank. Go down the river by buoys or kayaks. Kitesurf and Stand up are some of the activities you can do during the day.

Night

And when night falls Caraíva transforms itself. The few lights then create a different spirit. Restaurants and bars gather people preparing themselves for the overnight fun.

Yes, here the night really begins after 10pm. You can get some rest after the beach, you can even get some sleep, when you wake up, you may have something different and tasty for dinner , then, it’s time to go dancing, to go dragging your feet.

(Forró is a dance known as dragging the feet).

Forró do Ouriço takes turns with Forró do Pelé and every night during the high season, there is good music and lively night that lasts until the day lightens.
