By Mauricio Carvalho


Disguised from the recognition of Copacabana and Ipanema, Praia Vermelha (Red Beach) is a attractive place with steeply sloped sands. This beach intrigues its guests with its alluring, luxuriant and unusual style.

Flanked by coconut and bamboo trees, this spot is simply another fabulous retreat of serenity and calm in Rio de Janeiro that's blessed with cacti, orchids, bromeliads and grassy bushes.

The red beach lies near the Morro da Urca, situated in the mountains just above. From this beach it is possible to reach Sugar Loaf by cable car which is a definite must see attraction.

Sugar Loaf Mountain (Po de Aucar), rises 1,300ft above sea-level supplying you with a breathtaking panoramic viewpoint of Rio's majestic beauty including Copacabana. With high perching boulders situated in between magnificent bays and dazzling beaches on one side and abruptly soaring mountains from the water on the other side, this area is ideal for intimate outings and magnificent photos.

Fervent surfers may also find red beach an exciting location for its hollow and quick surf. Mainly the left side of the beach, also called Saquinho, is a excellent place for both first-timers and professionals.
