World's best beach : In my opinion it is Brazil's - white sands, year-round sunshine, samba and parties.

Rio de Janeiro : It is the most famous beach in the world. The most notable among Rio's beaches is Copacabana, having over 4 km of pristine, wide white sand to relax. It has plenty of accommodation available. Beach activities include volleyball, water sports and all night partying!.



Ipanema: Ipanema near Copacabana is known as the "family beach", it is nonetheless the beach to go to if you want to see the girls parading the latest designs in tropical swimwear.

Sao Paulo
Angra dos Reis, Costa Verde: Located on the coastline between Rio and Sao Paulo, Costa Verde (Green Coast) is probably one of the most popular of the Brazil beaches. This long golden sandy beachhas plenty of accommodation.

Santos Beach: 45 km from Sao Paulo, this beach is famous for its 4 km long beach garden.
