Praia Vermelha
Brazil, Brazil
Praia Vermelha, or Red Beach, is a small 200-250 meter sandy stretch in Rio de Janeiro's Urca neighborhood at the base of Sugarloaf Mountain, offering stunning panoramic views of Guanabara Bay and the iconic cable car.
Protected by headlands for calm waters ideal for families and swimming, its coarse sand takes on a reddish hue at sunset, though strong currents require caution beyond shallow areas. This safe, locals-favored spot near a military base features beach huts for snacks, chairs, and drinks, plus easy access to the Cláudio Coutinho trail for hikes amid lush greenery.
