Barra is overrated
I've just been to Rio, and hated Barra de Tijuca. I've stayed near posto 8 (Ayrton Senna street), the beach was full of trash everywhere and the water somewhat polluted, you could see stains on the sea of some sort of waste (I thought it was oil or something), besides waves sucked big time, and I had to paddle a lot to get to the break point. Awful beach. I recommend Grumari ten thousand times, waves weren't that good either, but the place is just awesome.
