VEN THOUGH MOST OF RIO DE JANEIRO CITY
lies away from the coast,
its association with the beach remains strong, courtesy of the stunning
Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, whose sweeping crescents of sand look
south across the Atlantic Ocean. These beaches are backed by a series of
bustling neighborhoods: Copacabana lies at the western end of Copacabana
beach and Leme sits at its eastern extremity; Arpoador sits at Ipanema
beach's eastern end, Leblon at its western end, and Ipanema lies in between.
While Arpoador, Ipanema, and Leblon attract the exclusive beach crowd,
vibrant Copacabana and Leme beaches are somewhat tawdry.
