The aim of this study was discussing the leisure policy concerning the public spaces, specifically the “Cais da Aurora” (wharf), wchich was carried out by the government of the city of Recife (from 2001 to 2004). Besides the contemporany theories about leisure and the recent development of social policies it was taken into account the popular participation which gave cause to the restauration os this leisure public space. It was realized that, although sport and leisure did not appear as priorities in this project, there was a worry concerning these aspects as a way to overcome the excluding and authoritarian model, and so to reach the democratization of the body culture in its most different ways. Keywords: Leisure, public policies, urban space
