It was just a few weeks ago that a friend of mine shared this article about expectations versus reality tourist photos – and whilst a lot of them are true, it’s slightly exaggerated, especially when it comes to Rio’s Copacabana and Ipanema. With that in mind, on my recent trip to Brazil, I managed to explore some hidden gems of beaches including Cabo Frio, Arraial do Cabo, Buzios, Praia Grande do Arraial do Cabo (which was my absolute favourite), Praia Tartaruga and more. Here’s a selection of some highlights – more can be seen on my Instagram too.
