COPACABANA
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL
The atmosphere is what makes Copacabana one of the most famous beaches in the world. Roughly 160,000 people live in the city of Copacabana, and thousands of others are visiting at any time (especially for the iconic New Year’s Eve celebration). Enjoy the warm water, soak in some rays, visit the famous bars and restaurants or simply enjoy a long afternoon of people-watching. The crowds and entertainment on this 4-kilometre-long stretch of sand never disappoint.

Greece’s Best Beaches
At the most Southeastern part of Europe, where three continents unite, lies a land known for its mythology and ancient civilization. One that is known throughout the world for all its gifts to our way of life. Today though, visitors tend to look for something different in Greece. Obviously, one will take the time to visit the renowned ruins and bask in the glorious sun, but having the second largest coastline in Europe, bigger than that of France, Spain and Portugal combined, it offers some of the most magnificent beaches one can find throughout the world.
Greece has a unique geology that makes it home to over 6,000 islands. However, only 227 of them are inhabited. No other country in Europe has such features. Being a relatively small country too, the furthest point from the coast one can get to while in Greece is 137km away. That means that no matter where you are in the country, you can get to a beach within 1,5 hour of driving!
