Copacabana

Copacabana Beach RioPerhaps the most famous beach in Rio de Janeiro is Copacabana. The beach offers spectacular views of one of Rio’s most famous sites, Sugar Loaf. The 4 kilometer long beach (~2.5 miles) is one of my favorites. I’ve included a few photos to give you a glimpse of this beautiful beach.

The black and white swirl you see behind Sergio on the sidewalk represents two rivers from the Amazon that Copacabana Beach has adopted as its own.

One response to “Copacabana

  1. You’ve obviously never been down to the Ormond/Daytona area. That’s several miles of beachfront. It’s amazing.

    One fond memory is being there in the middle of February and just getting brown as hell on the beach.
