In Rio de Janeiro, beaches are an integral part of every Carioca's lifestyle. There you meet your friends, make new acquaintances, prepare for your evening and admire the most beautiful boys and girls in the city. Many people come to the beach not only to sunbathe, but also to show off their tanned and muscular bodies. And no false modesty: here, they don't hesitate to take out the sexiest swimsuits, including the famous swimsuit preferred by the locals, an ultra sexy boxer with speedo look.

Several gay beaches in Rio de Janeiro
One of the most famous gay beaches in Rio de Janeiro is of courseIpanema beach, at the end of the perpendicular street Farme d'Amoedo, between "postos" 8 and 9. It is impossible to miss it, you will spot in the distance many rainbow flags fluttering in the wind. In high season, this beach can get crowded and it can be difficult to get to the beach because it is so crowded. Rental of beach chairs and umbrellas. You may be very solicited by beautiful boys who tend to ostensibly touch each other's crotches, so don't be surprised. Masseurs will also come by to offer their services, accompanied by iced cocktails.

Not far from the gay beach of Ipanema, around "posto" 9, the gay beach of Coqueirão takes its name from the huge palm trees that border it. Less known, it is also more mixed and diverse. Coqueirão beach is an interesting and less crowded alternative to Ipanema.

On Copacabana beach, another star beach of Rio de Janeiro, gays and trans people like to meet at Bolsa, located at the corner of Rua Rodolfo Dantas and Avenida Atlantica, in front of the Copacabana Palace, a historical building from the 20s.

Finally, Praia do Abricó is the only naturist beach in Rio de Janeiro and it is not exclusively gay. Praia do Abricó is located in Grumari, a sub-district of Barra da Tijuca, in the western part of Rio de Janeiro. Here, no question of staying in swimsuit, and voyeurs are not welcome!
