Lagoa da Jansen
An urban lagoon park in the new city, lined with walking paths, bars, and restaurants, and a popular spot for locals to socialize and stroll in the evening.
Lagoa da Jansen lies in the new city between Ponta d'Areia and Calhau. Around the lagoon are about 5 km of walking and cycling paths, sports fields, and egrets along the shore. In the evening, the bars, restaurants, and open-air stages by the water come alive, and live music is often played on weekends. It is a good place to experience the nightlife of local young people. The water has a noticeable odor, so it is better suited to walking and dining than to water activities.
