Praia Vermelha - costão do morro da Babilônia 2
Praia Vermelha is located in the neighborhood of Urca, in Rio de Janeiro. Facing the sea, the rocky shore on the right side is the Babilônia hill. Diving point 2 on this shore starts at the first cove and goes in the opposite direction to the beach until the beginning of the curve out!
It is possible to see several species of fish, such as puffer fish, coiós and frades. I have many sea urchins, so be careful! Turtles and octopuses are often seen.
