People of all ages gather along the shores of many beaches,
day and night, playing all sort of sports - surf, beach soccer,
volley ball, foot volley, gymnastics, jogging, and even
weigh-lifting, just to name a few. Youths learn soccer all along the
beaches, while the elders enjoy free gyms and exercise in classes
courtesy of the city's prefecture.
Blue waters energize
during the day, and mesmerize at sunset - always welcoming surfers,
body boarders, swimmers, and divers. The white sands of a hundred
shores feel like velvet when playing volley, beach volley, fresco
ball, beach soccer, and Rio's all time favorite sport 'altinha.'
