Urca Beach
10 Gavin Willard

We spent the morning at a small inlet beach in Urca, which may not be the typical expansive white sand coastline that people associate with Rio. However, it was a clean and cozy beach that was pleasantly uncrowded. It was also very child-friendly and definitely worth a visit! Additionally, there are cable car rides available between the mountains, although we haven't tried them yet. I'm sure the view from up there must be amazing.
