    One of the most beautiful beaches I ever have seen. The white sand and sea colours are amazing. But I suggest coming out of the high summer season because it gets to crowded.

    Nice trekking! From the rock mountain, you can see a panorama view of 2 beaches and the ocean. Recommended!!!

    This is a great place to boogie board and catch some waves. Be careful with smaller children as this can get rough. If you have littles Praia do Forte has a calmer cove. We love this in the summer and winter. Be warned in the winter it feels cold.

    An oasis of tranquility by the canal, this is the charming neighborhood of Passagem. Forget everything you think or have heard about the bustling Cabo Frio. Now, imagine a place where it is possible to have a beautiful beach atmosphere, in the midst of historic houses, old cobblestone streets and alleys, with the refinement of excellent hotels, bars and restaurants in an incredibly bucolic atmosphere.

    I always come to Prainha when I'm in Cabo Frio, near to Arraial do Cabo. Its sea has these incredible colors and the water is not that cold as the others. It's priceless!!

    The beach towards the Japanese island area is without doubt the busiest beach I have ever witnessed BUT jump in an Uber from here to the further end of the beach towards Arraial do Cabo (about £3) you have Foguete beach with pristine, clean, white sand and crystal clear, warm water. One of my favourite beaches in the world. Parasol, chairs and ice cold beers available at reasonable prices.

    This is a good place, boat access only. If you don’t swim it is a little scary later in the afternoon. Wear shoes - a lot of shells that can hurt the feet
    Once on the island great music cold beer!

    This is a beautiful beach and quite isolated, but be careful about being here alone. A number of people have been robbed in this beach. This is also a clothing optional area.

    Go there right from the beach. When high season the beach is packed and so is this place, so if you are to get a selfie, get in line!
