Bar do Arante
Arante Bar e Restaurante
A classic fishing village restaurant operating since 1958, with walls and ceilings covered in over 70,000 guest notes, specializing in homestyle seafood like shrimp and fried fish with pirão.
Located on the Pântano do Sul beach in the south of the island, this restaurant opened in 1958. Its wooden walls and ceilings are covered with over 70,000 handwritten notes, a tradition started in the 1970s by camping students leaving messages for friends. The signature offerings include the multi-course seafood sequence (sequência de frutos do mar), shrimp pastéis, and fried fish with pirão. Dishes for two cost about 90 to 130 reais, and there is a buffet on weekends. Located right on the beach, it is perfect for a meal before or after relaxing by the sea. It is a long drive from the city center, so driving or taking a taxi is recommended.
