The best packing lists for Rio de Janeiro

In Rio beachwear is everyday wear, which simplifies the suitcase enormously. Out and about you carry very little: a small bag, some cash, your phone. Sugarloaf, Corcovado and the Tijuca forest trails are the exception and want trainers with grip, because the rock is often damp.

Good to know for Rio de Janeiro

December to March is hot and humid with late-afternoon storms. June to August is pleasantly mild and cool enough in the evening for long sleeves. On Sugarloaf and up at the Christ statue there is nearly always more wind than down on Copacabana.

The three-pin type N plug is standard and Rio generally runs at 127 volts. The currency is the real, cards work almost everywhere, and beach kiosks and buses want small notes.

The commonest mistake is too much evening wear. Rio is casual, and one good pair of sandals and a shirt will cover you.
