Guaiba river - all beaches

This beach would be ideal if it were possible to swim in the water. The view is incredible, and the wind, as well as the restaurants and snack bars, are decent. Due to Covid, not everything is open, but it's still worth visiting to appreciate nature while enjoying a beer. You can either bring your own or purchase one at the bars. Just be cautious of mosquitoes on the beach, and unfortunately, there is a lot of trash scattered on the sand. It's quite a mess, and you have to be careful when taking pictures to avoid capturing bottles or leftover food, which seem to be left behind as part of rituals by the Umbanda people.

While participating in forest fire prevention and combat training in Barra do Ribeiro, I had the opportunity to visit Praia da Picada. It's a truly picturesque place, with a unique charm. I heard about Toco, a dog who seems to be more like a fish in a dog's body, as he absolutely adores the water. It's definitely worth experiencing firsthand!

This beach is perfect for families. It's peaceful, has restrooms and showers, and the staff is fantastic.

Question: Are the locals skilled at fishing in this area? I visited the spot with high hopes but unfortunately didn't reel in any catches!
