Places to stay during Rio New Year's Eve Deals

The big party of course has to be in Rio - and next to Carnvial is the most popular time of the year for Brazil's capital city. It all happens at the famed Cocabana Beach for the Lemanja Festival. Millions of people flock to the sand for music, dancing and fireworks. The most curious tradition is that it's customary to wear white to the beach. They say it's to bring in good luck and fortune for the new year, but we think it's because it will show champagne stains. You will get stained too; everyone brings champagne to the beach and douse themselves at midnight. Many people also bring flowers to the beach and toss them into the ocean throughout the evening as a tribute to Yemenja, the Goddess of the Seas. You can also buy little boats to sail out gifts as well.
