Paraty Nightlife - Where to drink in Paraty
What better way to spend a balmy Paraty evening than strolling the cobblestone streets in search of a nice , refreshing drink and some lively entertainment. You won´t have to walk very far as the town is buzzing with hip and happening bars, lounges and clubs offering up some very tasty beverages and more often then not, live music.
Most of the action takes place around Praca da Matriz ( main square) but throughout the historic centre, there are many local watering holes worth a visit. There is a large range of places to choose from. If you want cosmopolitan and international like the bars in gatwick airport hotels, you´ll find it. If you want a joint serving straight-up caipirinhas, Skol and Antartica...you won´t have to go far either! There is something for everyone in Paraty.
*** be prepared to pay a cover charge or an extra fee for live music in Paraty - it is the norm and well worth it.
