Rio de Janeiro

Itacoatiara beach is in the city of Niterói, Rio de Janeiro in Brazil 

Itacoatiara is a beach with fine golden sands and bright blue (sometimes green) water. The main beach is open to the Atlantic Ocean and is dangerous for the casual swimmer while offering ideal conditions for water sports.
