Read this guide to the best beaches in the region to help you plan your exciting vacation.
A lovely beach resort, Buzios is conveniently located next to Arraial do Cabo on a peninsula which boasts no less than 17 incredible beaches. In the past, Buzios used to be a small fishing village, but it has now been turned into a high-end resort, with designer shops, fancy restaurants and opulent villas lining its streets. The best beaches of Buzios are located in the south. Although less accessible, they are also the most beautiful and great for surfing. Among the most popular beaches, you will find Geriba and Ferradurinha, Ferradura, Praia Olho de Boi, and Praia Brava.
If what you are seeking is true relaxation and calm, away from the crowds of tourists and partygoers, head out to Ilha Grande, a stunning island about 150km west off the coast of Rio de Janeiro. This small tropical-like island, home to only three settlements and covered with unspoiled beaches and rainforest, is one of the most beautiful beach destinations in the country, and relatively untouched by massive tourism. The island is busier on weekends, as a favorite among locals, but still retains its quaint and authentic charm. It can be easily reach with a 1h30 ferry-ride from Angra dos Reis on the mainland (about 3hrs from Rio de Janeiro by bus).
Parati is a lovely coastal town, generally very lively from Christmas to Carnival and on the weekends, but quiet and relaxed the rest of the year, which makes it a delightful beach destination. Boasting myriad jutting peninsulas and secluded beaches, Parati is beautifully set against mountains covered by the jungle, overlooking hundreds of islands and their crystal clear waters. Around Parati lie 65 islands and 300 beaches. If you really want to get away from it all, rent a small motorboat at the port and the skipper will take you wherever you want, to the most secluded and beautiful beaches.
