Rio's Best Beaches
Rio de Janeiro’s coastline features a diverse range of environments, from the 18-kilometer stretch of Barra da Tijuca to the secluded, ecologically protected coves of Prainha and Grumari. This selection highlights specific coastal characteristics, including the world-class surf breaks of the West Zone, the paragliding landing zones at Pepino Beach, and the rocky sunset platforms of Arpoador. These locations showcase the transition from the urbanized South Zone to the rugged, forest-fringed beaches and quiet bay-side shores at the city's outer limits.
