Prainha é um dos points favoritos dos surfistas no Rio. Localizado dentro da reserva florestal de Grumari, cercada de Mata Atlântica, o cenário é deslumbrante. Frequentada por muita gente bonita e esportistas em geral, vale passar um dia de relax por lá. Saindo do bairro do Recreio, o caminho de carro é espetacular! Prainha is one of the favorite points of surfers in Rio. Located inside the forest reserve of Grumari, surrounded by Atlantic Forest, the scenery is breathtaking. Frequented by many beautiful people and sportsmen in general, it is worth spending a day of relaxation there. Leaving the Recreio neighborhood, the drive is spectacular!

The best beach in Rio! This beach became a protected reserve after the activism of some surfers. Today it isn´t a paradise just for surfers, but to anyone that wishes to be in touch with the nature. Looking to the ocean, at the right edge of the beach there is a restaurant with ocean view outdoor tables, where you can try fresh fishes grilled at your wish.
