Brazilian Beaches Overview In Brazil, beaches are present in many cities and are touristic points that attract a lot of people for their natural beauty. Many people separate some vacation days to visit the beach and rest from routine while they enjoy the “Tropical Brazilian Visual”.  There are a lot of options to have fun when we’re on a Brazilian beach, such as practicing sports, enjoying a snack/drink, fishing, riding a jetski/boat, having a sunbath and of course, bathing in the sea.  For us, this is a perfect fun and relaxing moment to bring family or friends together, or even to enjoy your own company in peace.  User Journey Waking up in a beautiful sunny day and excited to get ready to hang out on the beach, we separete essential items, like sunblock, swimsuit, towel, beache yoke, beach chair, sun glasses, hat and a snack. On the beach we spread the towel, preferably in the shade of an umbrella and get ready to take a sun bath and get in the water. As activities, we can practice a sport like frescoball, voleyball or soccer, we can also take a good book to read, or just have fun with a walk in sea shore e socialize with friends, enjoy good music with the bluetooth speaker, have the snacks with some drinks we brought with the cooler, and we have option to buy a popsicle, churros or corn.

What do they think? I'll have to keep an eye on my things from the water and not swim far from the shore or trust a total stranger with all my precious belongings. What should they think? I'll swim wherever and as much as I want and without worrying about my things in the sand! Personas As it is freely accessible, the beach is a very democratic environment and is frequented by different groups and styles of people.
