for anyone craving an ice-cold beer once the sun goes down, there are multiple options within walking distance of the beach. the newly renovated farol lounge is a local favorite, perfect for kicking back with a chilled beer or simply celebrating the end of a late-night study session- yummy snacks and a number of big flat-screen televisions give it a friendly vibe reminiscent of all the comforts of relaxing at home, but without needing to clean up after.

for soccer enthusiasts itching to catch a football game, one hasto swing by brazucabar, well-known by most sports fans on the island - visitors need to only pick a team, grab a caipirinha, and join the animated crowd.
