Capao Da Canoa

About Capao Da Canoa

Praia de Capão da Canoa gives Capão da Canoa its identity as a relaxed beach town on Brazil’s Rio Grande do Sul coast, shaped by sand, boardwalk life and summer days.

December through February brings the town’s main beach season. The Calçadão links the shore with cafés and evening activity, while Praça Flávio Boianovski offers an open setting near the center.

Beach time, sunset views from the pier and fresh seafood fill the days, with the Parque de Rodeios adding a cultural stop beyond the center. Portuguese is used locally, and Spanish is also understood; açaí na tigela makes an easy beachfront snack.
