Latest reviews on Rio Claro's beaches

Apara Beach
10 Luisa

This beach is a wonderful and serene spot to spend a weekend. There are several rental houses available, but be sure to bring insect repellent as the area is close to a forest. If you're planning a day trip, be sure to arrive early as parking is limited. The beach is ideal for those seeking peace and quiet, and there is a source of drinking water (at least it was when I visited) located next to the train tracks.

Bonfim Beach
10 Zimbrat Z

This charming beach is perfect for children to enjoy some fun in the sun. The surroundings are peaceful and well-maintained, although the lack of public restrooms is a minor inconvenience. Kids will delight in leaping off the jetty into the pristine water, which is impressively clean considering its proximity to the town. Overall, a visit to this beach is definitely worthwhile.
