About

Perigoso Beach is located on the South Atlantic Ocean (part of Atlantic ocean) and it is in the 71th place out of 375 beaches in the Rio de Janeiro region 39.4 km away from its center, the city of Rio de Janeiro. It is one of the beaches of Aracatiba settlement, just 2.8 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, among the mountains, surrounded by the cliffs.

It is a straight coastline with crystal turquoise water and bright sand, so you don't need special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers etc. It is partially crowded during the high season.

Perigoso Beach coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities.

Getting to the beach is quite simple: just take a short walk along the trail. Parking is located at some distance, within 300 meters.

7 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Praia da Barra de Guaratiba, which has a rating of 8.7.

Perigoso Beach (Rio de Janeiro) is located outside the Aracatiba settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Perigoso Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

This beach is pretty good. The sand is nice and the water is clear. However, there are a lot of people here and it can get crowded. Overall, it's a decent spot to spend the day.

This hidden gem is a secluded beach, a small island of paradise that I was fortunate enough to discover. The experience was completely spontaneous and I am so grateful for it. As we were in Guratiba, the ocean began to rise and our tent was almost swept away. Thankfully, a good friend recommended this place to us and it turned out to be a true savior. The water levels were just right and we had an absolutely amazing time. I highly recommend visiting this stunning location if you have the chance. In fact, I believe it to be the most beautiful spot in all of Rio de Janeiro!

Ah, this beach is simply divine! It's like the cream of the crop when it comes to Rio de Janeiro's beaches. The water is so pristine, you could practically drink it (but please don't, that's not safe). My personal favorites are Perigoso and Middle Beach, they're like two peas in a pod. And let me tell you, you can have a roaring fire and camp out here anytime your heart desires. It's like a safe haven, except I wouldn't recommend camping alone, unless you're into that sort of thing. If you're feeling adventurous, there's a massive rock mountain that you can scale, and make it look like you're hanging off a cliff. And if that's not your cup of tea, there's a stunning tidal pool where you can collect all the seashells your heart desires. Just make sure you bring some snacks and water, because the hike to get here is no joke. It'll take you at least 45
