Located between Barra da Tijuca and Recreio, in my opinion, one of most calm beaches of Rio de Janeiro city. As it's access is a little difficult (only by car, foot or bike) that beach is not so full of people as the majority of others in Rio. It is a perfect beach for families and calm people who does't like great agglomerations, although you may miss bathrooms, kiosks and other commodities. Take a look at some pictures of the past Sunday: If you want to make a visit, please look at the Google Maps link at the bottom of this post!
