Praia de Fora, Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Praia de Fora stretches along the Rio de Janeiro coast with soft sand beaches, clear waters, and rocky sections suitable for swimming and water activities.
The beach has maintained its connection to traditional fishing practices since the early development of Rio de Janeiro's coastal communities in the 20th century.
Local fishermen gather at sunrise to practice traditional net casting techniques, continuing centuries-old fishing methods passed through generations.
Visitors can access the beach via local transportation or private vehicles, with parking facilities and basic amenities available near the shoreline.
The combination of soft sand areas and natural rock formations creates distinct swimming zones, attracting both families and adventure seekers.
