The album was very well received. On Allmusic.com, the album received 4.5 stars (out of 5.0). Eduardo Rivadavia stated: "São Paulo's Ultraje a Rigor became known for their honest, straightforward rock & roll and easygoing sense of humor. Given the local rock scene's relative immaturity, the formula worked to perfection, making their 1985 debut album Nós vamos Invadir sua Praia (We're Going to Invade Your Beach) the first platinum-certified release by that generation of up-and-coming rock bands". (...) "Simple but effective, to modern listeners, Brazilian or not, Nós vamos Invadir sua Praia is bound to sound archaic and perhaps even hopelessly basic, but in the context of history, it helped birth Brazilian rock & roll into its golden era."[3]

It was listed by Rolling Stone Brazil as one of the 100 best Brazilian albums in history.[4] The magazine also voted the song "Inútil" as the 23rd greatest Brazilian song.[5]
