depending on the day and traffic conditions, this bus line stops at the entrance to the marambaia, a local landmark beach within a military area easily recognizable by the presence of a tall white rounded bridge. 

from the marambaia, the walk to the barra de guaratiba beach is about 10 minutes - passing barra de guaratiba beach, the trail starts at the end of rua parlon siqueira, the street above the small beach called praia do canto.

bus schedules are subject to frequent changes, and there may be new routes offered at any time, so it is always best to consult with a local guide or hotel concierge to confirm details in advance.
