Praia do Vidigal, Beach at Morro Dois Irmãos, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Located at an elevation of 15 meters, Praia do Vidigal offers views of the Atlantic Ocean and the mountains of Rio de Janeiro.

The beach area transformed significantly after 2011 when the Vidigal neighborhood underwent social improvements and infrastructure development programs.

Local residents gather at the beach for social events, creating a connection between the favela community and visitors through music and food.

Visitors can reach the beach by descending a stairway near the Sheraton Hotel or taking local transportation from Leblon and São Conrado neighborhoods.

The beach sits between two mountains, providing natural shade during certain hours and creating different swimming conditions throughout the day.
