Copacabana, The Most Popular Beach at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Kamis, 02 September 2010
When one said about the world famous beach in the world, so the first coming to mind is Copacabana beach (Praia de Copacabana). Copacabana is the best travel destination that located within the city confines of Rio de Janeiro, this four kilometer strip of beach serves up an animated menu of activities and sights as lengthy as its coastline. Possibly the most famous stretch of sand in the world, Copacabana beach is synonymous with the hedonistic side of Rio – with sun, sea, beautiful bodies and New Year celebrations on the beach.

Swimming in its crystal blue waters, tanning in its sun baked sand, kicking around a futbol in a game of sand soccer or beach volleyball, with or without your hands, can all be deliciously tempting your round (though June-August does see its share of rain) at this prominent South American retreat.

Copacabana is named after the conspicuous (you can’t miss it) and still distinguished Copacabana Palace Hotel which opened in 1920, to this day attracts the rich and famous.



The allure of the wide, white sand beach, the affable locals or Cariocas, round the clock parties, bikini clad beauties (don’t worry ladies there’s a pile of bronzed back beef cake too) sumptuous restaurants, lively bars and music and night clubs all at very reasonable prices, will instantly gain and keep attention through out your stay.
