Praia do Cassino, Atlantic beach in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil

The beach stretches for 254 kilometers along Brazil's southern coast, creating an uninterrupted sandy expanse from Rio Grande to the Uruguay border.

The beachfront development started in 1890 when the Suburban Mangueira Company established a tourism complex with hotels for international visitors.

Local residents celebrate maritime traditions through yearly festivals, connecting the community with sea-related activities and regional customs.

Visitors can access the beach through multiple entry points along Rio Grande Avenue, where parking areas and facilities are available.

NASA conducted atmospheric research at this location during the 1966 total solar eclipse, launching rockets to study upper atmospheric conditions.
