Located on the shores of Barra da Tijuca, the Classico Beach Club is one of the busiest and most modern BEACH CLUBs in the Rio Bay area.

Upon arriving at this place I was able to experience an explosion of emotions that I recommend, because in its long and comfortable spaces I installed myself to enjoy all these activities, I was attended by an excellent staff and without counting the delicious national and international gastronomy, predominantly maritime cuisine. and native species of the region.

I met a couple of girls and we settled in the upper terrace area, a lounge area with couches, ideal to enjoy the views of the whole place and to be able to dance and drink with the greatest comfort.

Without a doubt, the practice of water sports and having my own surfing and sailing lessons in the blue waters of the Pacific have been one of the best experiences, but they do not compare to the one lived when visiting Christ the Redeemer
I took a guided tour that took me to Christ the Redeemer or Christ of Corcovado, this symbol of Rio de Janeiro, it is one of the most iconic points of this city and being able to visit it was totally fabulous and unforgettable. Just arriving and looking at the statue did it impress me with its sheer size.
