For hiking and rock climbing activities, such as at Pedra Bonita or Pão de Açúcar, the dry season from May to September offers cooler temperatures and less rain, making it ideal. Surfing along the beaches like Ipanema is best during summer from December to March when the surf is up and the weather is warm. For those looking to stay close to nature, consider eco-tours in Tijuca National Park year-round, and book accommodations at hotels in Rio de Janeiro for a comfortable stay.
