Gay Recife

Recife is a colorful, energetic city in northeastern Brazil known for its beaches, culture, and buzzing nightlife. It’s a popular travel destination with a distinctly local flavor—think historic streets, strong caipirinhas, and warm ocean breezes.

The gay scene is mostly centered around Avenida Manoel Borba, where you’ll find bars, saunas, and nightlife that stay busy well into the night. Boa Viagem and Piedade beaches are local favorites with LGBTQ+ visitors, offering a laid-back, friendly vibe right by the water.
