I love this beach when I'm in Fortaleza. The many "palapas" (bar-restaurant) are nice... there are some very good ones, and others not as good). The water temperature is perfect, the waves are a bit strong and are be careful with ocean currents. Careful with the beautiful tropical sun because de lovely and constant oceam brezee can pull a trick on you.If you are a beach lover I recommend.
Dark sand and water was not too clear. Atmosphere was good. This was a crowded beach, close by restaurants added to the atmosphere. Definately not a must do in Fortaleza.
This is the best beach located in the city. The beach is clean and there are several restaurants with infrastructure for you to spend the day at the beach.
We stayed at a hotel along Beira Mar. It is very safe, with walking path along the beach front. We took a bus (no. 49) from outside the hotel, bus fare R2.20 per person to the Croco beach on Praia do Futuro. Just note that the Crcobeach is a block away from the bus route. There is no way of knowing when to get off unless someone told you. We were fortunate to have some Brazilian on the bus who tells us. If not, make sure you ask the bus driver. It's a good place to spend a couple of hours on the beach in the shade, with music and lots of yummy seafood. We took the same bus number 49 on the opposite side of the road where we last got off. Best to visit in the day time as several review on trip-advisor have said so. It is not particularly a good area.
Wonderful beautiful clean beach 20 minutes outside of the main hotels on Av. Beira Mar. Decent restaurant. Place to wash off. No charge.
The beach is very nice however a bit dirty. Anyway worth knowing. Look for Crocobeach for lunch, good food and fair prices.
Unremarkable and a bit of an anticlimax after Beira Mar, Mierles and Iracema. The restaurants were overpriced and the area lacked ambience
Many type of barracas as options to your liking. It is pricey depending on your choice of barraca. I recommend to spend at least a day on the beach.
I saw the place during a tourist tour. It is far away from the city; as far as I saw there is just one hotel there. It had a high wall around it. According to the tour guide, it is a pretty dangerous place, especially after sunset. Beware.
Praia do Futuro is a must seen beach of Fortaleza. All beach facilities are avaliable of the large sandy beach. You don't have to pay too much to have the experience. Beach is safe but be careful with the waves of the ocean and better to take a taxi.
