Copacabana Beach

Copacabana Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Because of its beauty, it is
also the most visited beach on earth. It is estimated that millions of people visit the beach. It makes it
the most popular summer destination.

It is situated on the east coast of Brazil. The beach is 4 km long long, from Postos Dois (lifeguard
watch tower two) in the north, to Postos Seis (lifeguard watch tower six) in the south. At the both
ends of the beach, there are historic forts. Fort Copacabana built in 1914 is by Porto Seis and Forth
Duque de Caxias is at the northern end, built in 1779. Behind Forth Duque de Caxias, we can see the
beauty of Sugarloaf Mountain.

Taking a walk along the beach is very enjoyable. Visitors can enjoy the fantastic weather and the
beauty of its white sand. It matches with the clear blue of the sea-water. Along the beach, people can
enjoy many unique and sand sculptures. Playing sports is another thing that visitors can do on the
beach. The government has placed a lot of volleyball courts, football fields, playing grounds and other
sport facilities.

People can also take a walk along the beautiful promenade, parallel to the beach. The
promenade has been used by the public since 1970. It was designed by Roberto Burle Marx. Walking
along the promenade is incredible. It is the favourite route for cyclists, roller skaters and joggers. The
Atlantica Avenue runs alongside the promenade which is lined with first-class hotels, restaurant and
cafes.

Copacabana is really like a little paradise. It must be your choice to spend your holiday there.
