1 – SECRET BEACH

The Secret Beach really is a beautiful place! It is a place with no strip of sand, actually a natural pool. Its full extent is quite small and for the most part not too deep.

Firstly, the bad side is that due to its great beauty, it is increasingly popular and becoming a very crowded place and suffering the consequences for this (especially with regard to garbage).

Therefore, none of the beaches listed in this post are on our tours, however, for beaches outside the City.

2 – DANGEROUS BEACH

So, this one already starts abusing. Next to the Sugar Loaf, one of the biggest postcards of the City, presents a beautiful landscape.

In this way, its location, surrounded by the hills of Urca and Babylon, is usually a beach calm and without waves. It has this name because the sand becomes reddish when the sun goes down, due to the reflection of the light of the Sun in the red and pink crystals located in its sand
