behind this shore, the
morro dois irmãos
create a stunning
green backdrop juxtaposing against the blue waters of the cove.
a local fishing community with many members
from the
vidigal
favela adds to the charm of the this beach.
praia do vidigal is where many meet to practice
skim boarding,
a
sport very similar to
surfing, except instead of floating in the
water waiting for a wave, the athlete skims along the thin layer of
water left on the sand after a wave.
