Ipioca beach clubs: 2026 guide with day use, prices and how to get there from Maceió
The Ipioca beach clubs compared with no fluff: day use price, children, transport from your hotel and which one to pick for your trip.
Ipioca is about 30 km from the centre of Maceió, on the way out to the north coast. In a few years the beach has become the home of the capital's beach clubs: calm sea, coconut palms, and a set-up of pool, restaurant and music, without having to go all the way to Maragogi.
This guide compares the five beach clubs Oscar Indica works with, plus the Fazenda Cervejeira, and says, with no fluff, which one is worth it for each kind of trip. The prices below come from our booking system and update themselves: what's here is what's current.

Hibiscus Beach Club
The most complete of the lot: big pool, bungalows, a restaurant with an extensive menu and a DJ at weekends. It's the club for anyone who wants to spend the whole day and want for nothing, and for that reason it's also the most expensive day use in Ipioca.

Fazenda Cervejeira: the Saturday-and-Sunday plan that isn't the beach
It's not a beach club, but it's in Ipioca and belongs in the same conversation for anyone who wants a different kind of day on the north coast. The Fazenda Cervejeira is an open-air venue with a parrilla grill, meat cooked over the fire, house-brewed beers and draught, live music on some dates, a kids' area and a pet-friendly policy. Entry is free: you pay only for what you order.
We take you there and back from your hotel in Maceió on Saturdays and Sundays, for R$ 50 per adult and R$ 25 per child aged 6 to 11. It's the plan for anyone who has done the beach all week and wants a long lunch with good beer.
Fazenda Cervejeira – Ipioca
- Free entry, pay only what you order
- Parrilla grill, draught beer and live music on some dates
- Kids' area and pet friendly
- Saturdays and Sundays, round-trip transport from the hotel
Which one to choose
- Family with children: Corais (children up to 11 don't pay, open every day) or Casa Mar on a Sunday; if you want more facilities, Guarda Rios.
- Couple: Vivari.
- Group that wants a party: Hibiscus.
- Tight budget: Corais any day, Casa Mar on Sunday.
- A day off the beach, with beer and barbecue: Fazenda Cervejeira, Saturday or Sunday.
If it's a toss-up between two, you can do one per day inside a combo.
How to get there from Maceió
By car it's 35 to 45 minutes on the AL-101 Norte. By ride-hailing app, the trip out costs around R$ 60–80 and the trip back is the hard part: a car in Ipioca in the late afternoon is rare.
With Oscar, the per-person transport picks you up at the hotel, drops you at the club and brings you back at the agreed time. The price is on each club's card above.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to book day use in advance?
Day use is paid at the club entrance. What you need to book is the transport, because the van closes when it's full.
Do children pay?
At Casa Mar and Corais, no (at Corais, up to age 11). At Hibiscus, Vivari and Guarda Rios children pay half the day use. The exact amount is in the table above and on each club's page.
Can I visit two beach clubs in one day?
It's not worth it: each day use covers the whole day. The way to do it is one per day. In Build your itinerary you choose the clubs and the days your way and pay once.
Is there a private option?
Yes: an exclusive car for up to 6 people to any of the clubs. Look for "Private tour" under See all.
Does the Fazenda Cervejeira charge entry?
No. Entry is free and you pay only for what you order. What we charge is the round-trip transport from your hotel, on Saturdays and Sundays.
