Best Beaches in Brazil

Brazil’s coastline spans over 7,000 kilometers, offering diverse terrains from the urban sands of Rio de Janeiro’s Copacabana and Ipanema to the dramatic red cliffs of Morro Branco. This selection features Maceió's coral-enclosed natural pools at Pajuçara, the surfing hubs of Búzios like Geribá, and the dolphin-frequented waters of Pipa. Highlights include the calm, sunset-facing Red Beach at the foot of Sugarloaf Mountain and the reef-protected waters of Boa Viagem in Recife.
