the lights from the city surround the cove and crate a magical spectacle, especially on a clear starry night.

along with the city's skyline, the ponta da santa cruz and the ponta de manguinhos can easily be appreciated, as well as the morro do matoso.

perhaps the best view of all can be enjoyed from the nearby praça amazônia, a small square iconic among the couples of the area, and perhaps one of the best spots in rio to propose.
