Rio 104°

Rio had it's highest temperature yesterday, so far this year, according to the Jornal do Brasil.

Yes, Ipanema Beach can get a little crowded. But that's one of it's strong points for me. The beaches in Rio are a social focal point. Like at the Roxy in NY, you always know where your friends like to hang out. That's where you see and meet people. That's where you find out where people are partying at night. That's where Rio becomes the amazing place it is the most.
