This so-called "stunning" beach in Rio is nothing but a remote and isolated spot, surrounded by a bunch of overpriced houses. The only thing worth mentioning is a cliff where people do some sort of weird activity called Rapel. Apparently, the views are "amazing" - but only if you enjoy the constant noise of helicopters passing by. And if you're thirsty, don't worry - there's overpriced coconut juice nearby. Honestly, save your money and skip this overrated beach.

This stunning stretch of shoreline is a true gem, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the crowds. The seclusion of this beach is a true blessing, providing a peaceful and serene atmosphere that is perfect for relaxing and unwinding. With a smaller number of visitors, you can truly immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the surroundings, soaking up the sun and the sea breeze without any distractions. This is a must-visit destination for anyone who wants to experience the true tranquility of a secluded beach.

This beach is absolutely stunning! I was enamored with its beauty and was pleasantly surprised to find that it wasn't overcrowded. However, it's important to exercise caution when it comes to the sea as we had a close call with our belongings. While we were enjoying ourselves, a wave suddenly crashed onto the shore and soaked us all.

Nestled in a secluded corner of the upscale Jõa district, lies a serene and intimate beach, known only to a select few. While the journey to reach this hidden gem may prove to be a bit challenging, the rewards that await are nothing short of spectacular. Though this beach may be diminutive in size, the vistas that unfold before your eyes are simply breathtaking. So if you're seeking a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this secret beach is definitely worth the effort.

The natural beauty of this location is simply breathtaking, and I was absolutely blown away by the stunning scenery that surrounded me. From the crystal-clear waters to the soft, sandy shores, every aspect of this beach was truly awe-inspiring. I feel so grateful to have had the opportunity to experience such a magical place, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a truly unforgettable vacation destination.
