Farme, Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro
Easily one of the most beguiling gay beaches on earth, the Farme section of Rio’s Ipanema is home to the city’s “Barbie” set – that’s local lingo for the city’s seemingly endless supply of stunningly muscled men. Bears and trans gals prefer Copacabana’s Bolsa, but all are welcome at Farme, and the vibe is Rio-ifically relaxed and unabashedly gay. If you’re thirsty after the beach, stop by local watering holes Bar Bofetada on nearby Rua Farme de Amoedo.
