Botafogo beach

Ultimate guide (March 2024)
Botafogo is a beach at Guanabara Bay in Rio, - the one that we see from the Christ the Redeemer statue. There are no waves, but the water is very dirty (unlike the open Atlantic beaches). Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
This beach ranks #8 of the "Best beaches in Rio de Janeiro"
Rating: 7.2 - 504 votes [vote]
Coordinates: -22.944972, -43.181151

Hotels [edit]

In general hotels' level is comparable to those of Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, but prices are a bit cheaper.

How to get there [edit]

Fly to Rio de Janeiro International Airport (GIG). Next hire a taxi. Never catch a taxi on the street! You may just go to the nearest cafe or hotel, and ask to call a taxi for you.

When to go [edit]

The best time for a beach holiday in Rio de Janeiro is a warm period from October to April.
