Paraty Brazil, Ilha do Catimbau

It is one of the smallest islands off Paraty, Brazil and is also one of the coolest restaurants I’ve ever eaten in. Perhaps on fits better? The Ilha do Catimbau is about an acre in size and literally your fish may be caught from the ocean after you order. In fact your jumping into the water is encouraged. A perfect way to clean up after a platter of local grilled shrimp slathered with butter and garlic.
