Tourism in Fortaleza
Three thousand hours of sunlight per year and the constant ocean breeze make Fortaleza an appealing tourist attraction. The nightlife is full of festivities, with bars, restaurants, and shows. The city is known for having the "wildest Monday nights in the world". The Praia de Iracema (Iracema's beach), one of the first urban nuclei of the city, holds many bars and restaurants. It includes the Ponte dos Ingleses (Bridge of the Englishmen)-the old docks-is located and used to watch the sunset and spot dolphins.
Warm waters bathe Fortaleza's urbanized beaches, which offer every comfort to the tourist. The scenery is complemented by the jangadas (small and rustic rafts used by many of Ceará's fishermen). The jagandas bear seafood for Ceará cuisine.

The local population calls them "Barracas de Praia." On Thursday nights, the beach becomes the focus of the city's nightlife, with live music, forró and crab a popular choice to eat.
