Brazil is a country with the most beautiful beaches in the world. Residents of Rio love their beaches where they relax and enjoy numerous activities such as sports, music, dancing. Certainly the most famous beach in Rio de Janeiro is the famous Copacabana beach, which occupies 4 km of coastline, and offers an incredible view on the mountain Sugarloaf Mountain and the magnificent statue of Christ the Savior.
If you are a fan of nudist beaches, then Abrico Beach is for you! There are not many nudist beaches in Brazil. There are about 8 of them in total. One of them is Abrico Beach, located in the municipal park Grumari, in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Research shows that they formed the first nudist beaches here during the 1940s. Luz del Fuego, a famous dancer, actress and writer, who founded the first nudist stronghold in South America and is considered the first nudist in Brazil, visited Abricó beach in the 1950s. In the 1980s and 1990s, there were many attempts to legalize nudism in Abricó, but nothing was achieved at that time.
Recreio Beach is located in the western zone of Rio de Janeiro. Since this part of the city is relatively late developed, there are not many large buildings in surrounding area, and on the beach itself you can still find secluded parts where you can spend intimate moments. The atmosphere is relaxed and a bit bohemian with no crowds like on Ipanema or Copacabana.
