Introduction

Ipanema Beach, next to Copacabana, is Rio's most stylish and elegant beach, famous worldwide through the bossa nova classic "The Girl from Ipanema," with a romantic, lazy air. Fine sand and clear water, divided by lifeguard-tower numbers into zones with different crowds—free and diverse. At the beach's end, the Two Brothers Mountain is a great sunset backdrop; as the sun sets, onlookers spontaneously applaud—romantic. Behind is Rio's upscale residential and boutique district; on Sundays the coastal avenue closes to cars, becoming a leisurely promenade.
