Pagode ao Sunset (Bem Brasil Madeira)

Every Sunday, Barraquinha da Pedradeira turns into a stage for live Brazilian pagode and samba, right as the sun goes down over the Atlantic. The "Bem Brasil Madeira" sessions bring a full band — guitars, cavaquinho, percussion — for an afternoon of music, dancing and good company by the water.

It's a relaxed, feel-good gathering that's become a regular date for locals and visitors who want to catch the sunset with a Brazilian soundtrack.
