Leblon Beach

Leblon Beach stretches for 1.5 kilometers with white sand backed by the Dois Irmãos Mountain, which creates a natural boundary between the ocean and the city. Lifeguard stations, public restrooms, and numerous kiosks line the shore, offering basic services throughout the day.

The beach area began as a quilombo, a settlement founded in the late 1800s by Portuguese abolitionist José de Seixas Magalhães. Over time, this community gradually transformed into the coastal neighborhood that exists today.

The beach serves as a daily gathering place where locals play volleyball and footvolley in designated zones along the sand. These games are woven into the rhythm of life here, drawing regular players and spectators.

The beach is staffed with lifeguards and monitored by surveillance cameras throughout the day for visitor safety. Public facilities like restrooms and food kiosks are spread along the shore, making it easy to access basic services.

At Posto 12, an enclosed play zone called Baixo Baby offers specialized equipment and changing facilities designed for families with young children. This separated area keeps little ones entertained while parents relax nearby.
