In an utterly memorable position on the water, this classic seafood place scores top marks for location: the dining room is right over the waves above São Pedro’s town beach. Prices here partly reflect the unbeatable view, but the quality and atmosphere are great. And there's massada (lobster stew with pasta and tomatoes).
