Surrounded by coconut and bamboo trees, this area is simply another captivating oasis of peace and calm in Rio de Janeiro which is gifted with cacti, orchids, bromeliads and grassy bushes.

The red beach lies near the Morro da Urca, located in the mountains just above. From this beach you can reach Sugar Loaf by cable car which is a definite must see attraction.

Sugar Loaf Mountain (Po de Aucar), soars 1,300ft above sea-level supplying you with an amazing panoramic view of Rio's stunning beauty including Copacabana.
