#3 of 9 Beaches in Rio de Janeiro

Directions

One of Rio's most pristine and protected beaches, nestled inside an environmental preservation area with lush Atlantic Forest as a backdrop. The water is clean, the sand is golden, and the relative difficulty of getting there keeps the crowds manageable on weekdays. There are a few rustic seafood restaurants at the far end, but facilities are minimal — bring everything you need. Access requires a car or taxi along a winding coastal road.
