Rio Branco Travel Guide
Brazil
Rio Branco is a city of 257,642 people in western Brazil and serves as an important urban centre in the country’s Acre region. It is inland, so it is not a beach destination.
Most travellers arrive by air at Rio Branco-Plácido de Castro International Airport, the city’s listed airport. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so visits here are better suited to exploring the city and the surrounding inland area.
