I believe the Prai Ipanema is right next to the canal on the beach. It is
not only a bad section of beach, but kind of far from things in Ipanema
(it is closer to Leblon). The Ipanema Plaza is IMO in the nicest area.
You are barely a block from the beach, a block from the Hippie Fair,
close to Porcao and closer to Copa.

I was there last year for xmas and new years. I have lots of pics
