From the Copacabana to the Ipanema, it is on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro that the Cariocas spend their time. 

 Rich and poor, inhabitants of chic sea-front apartments or the hillside favelas, street kids and football hopefuls, black and white and every colour in between… everyone mixes together. One Rio afficianado claims that the sensual curves of the beach resemble a woman’s body ; the most beautiful in the world, he says. No-one is afraid of revealing themselves here, certainly not the beautiful, nor even the re-modelled, or the obese ! The only thing that counts is escaping the heat, and accepting the protection of the goddesses of the sea.
