Meirelles Beach - "Praia de Meirelles"  
   

Between Iracema Beach and Beira-Mar Avenue, this beach is in an urban area with impressive buildings and hotels. You can use the board walk for walking and cycling. It offers beach volley and facilities for skating and roller-skating. Alternatively, in front to the Imperial Othon Hotel, there is the Artesanato Fair (held nightly).
