Sands on the Beaches of Ipanema

There is just nothing better than sinking your toes into the sand at the beach in Ipanema. No matter the time of day or night, no matter how many people are there to share it. The beach here is picturesque, to say the least. From the rocks on the left extreme in Arpoador, to the rising granite monoliths of Two Brothers (Dois Irmaos). It is framed in an incredible natural setting with islands of stone in the front and sides. It never ceased to amaze me the wealth of beauty that encompasses Rio de Janeiro. I always tell my clients that they should see something different everyday, since there are so many areas to consider. The beaches are but one of the attractions here. There is the Botanical Garden, the Tijuca National Forest, The Vista Chinesa, not to mention the classics, Corcovado and Sugarloaf. As I said, rich in beauty and never enough time to see everything. I always enter into depression when I know I am about to leave...
