One of the fifty most beautiful beaches in the world is in Brazil: Grumari, west of Rio de Janeiro, entered the international ranking released in the second half of June by the travel recommendations platform “Big 7 Travel”.
The selected beaches are chosen based on three criteria: the best performance on social media, the evaluation of the jury of the editors of the platform and the score in the “Blue Flag” program maintained by the Foundation for Environmental Education (Fundazo Para Educazo Ambiental). To clean up the destinations and protect the ecosystem for sustainable tourism.
Entering the ranking, the Brazilian took 38th place and stood out precisely in the level of nature conservation. “Copacabana and Ipanema may get all the fame, but those who understand [do assunto] Run to Grumari Beach.
A fine golden sandy beach with emerald green water, with lush green forest in the background”, recommends “Big 7 Travel”.
