While In Rio de Janeiro's Barra da Tijuca, Rent Apartments Down The Beachfront

By Kimberly Zappata


Barra da Tijuca is definitely the longest beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with six Miles of clean and exotic green water. It is usually typically visited by refreshing waves enticing surfers equally for starters and experienced surfers. It's merely 20 minutes from Ipanema and Copacabana. A conventional surfer getaway in Brasil generally involves purchasing a new board and taking the bus out to Barra to test it out.

If you possess a apartment in Barra or you go out early and mean to stay there the whole day, you will take pleasure in the initial few kms of the beach of which tend to be filled with cafes and seafood dining places, so you could have a snack as you take a rest from riding the waves.

In addition to dining establishments, you'll come across various "barracas" (in Portuguese) or kiosks, which are simply food and drink stalls on the beach. It's tranquil on weekdays, and crazy on warm summer time weekends from December to March. An extension of this Beach is named Praia do Pepe. This name was presented to the beach simply because Pep was the nickname of a young boy selling beer, mineral water and home made, natural sandwiches at the beach as well as practicing a lot of sports activities.

Whilst renting from the numerous apartments offered in this tropical area is the way to stay, you can get there in numerous ways. The bulk of buses don't pass the full beach extension, so if you need to go by bus, it will leave you on the backstreet and you have to walk a little bit. There are certain vans that go there as well though if you desire a safe bet, the optimum method is to take a cab or rent a car to get there.

Buses from downtown to Barra (The Alvorada) pass via Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana beach, Ipanema, Leblon and downtown Rio. Just stick your hand out there any time they approach you and they'll pick you up.
