Lesbian and Gay Beach - Farme Beach - Brazil!

The gayspot at Ipanema Beach is a little to the East of Rua Farme de Amoedo . This is the best place to make friends with locals in a relaxed atmosphere, away from the bars and club scene.

While bears and trannies prefer to meet in Copacabana Bolsa, Gay Farme is Barbie Land. Before you ask, Barbie is how locals call muscled South Side gay men.

Waxing is optional. You don't have to be in top shape to join the fun, though. Farme is so traditional with the gay community, that even beach vendors display the rainbow flag.

If you are in good company and feeling romantic, go ahead and cuddle. There are a lot of gay and lesbian couples doing exactly the same thing. Kissing, holding hands and other displays of affection happen all the time.

Todos os direitos reservados. All Brazilian and foreign gay visitors to Rio know about Farme Beach. It is very international and friendly. If you have never been to a gay beach and you are curious, you are welcome to stop by. The gay beach is half a block from a beach soccer field, less than 10 minutes from Cap Ferrat.

You may run into local TV stars, stranded socialites, families with children, there is a little of everything. As in other parts of the beach, you do not have to bother bringing a chair or an umbrella. There is everything for rent or sale. Party promoters often distribute flyers, with discounts to gay parties and clubs.
