Jurerê is a beach and neighborhood in the north of the island, between Canasvieiras and Praia do Forte. According to Wikipedia, the neighborhood is split into Jurerê Internacional, a development known for its upscale homes, and Jurerê Tradicional, the older part. The same beach runs along both.

What the beach is like

  • Calm water: facing the North Bay, the beach has small waves and warmer water than the east.
  • Long stretch of pale sand, good for walking.
  • Summer buzz: Jurerê Internacional is famous for its beach clubs and nightlife in season.
