Once home to pirates and slave-traders, Buzios is a beach-lined peninsula jutting out into the sea. Made famous by Brigitte Bardot in the 1960s, today its beautiful beaches are frequented by the rich and famous. It's the perfect place to play all day in the sand and surf, then play all night in the clubs and bars.

The One Thing You Don't Want to Miss
|
|
|
Everyone who comes to Buzios comes for the beaches. There are 20 different beaches within a few kilometers of town, each set off from the others by the area's unique topography. Their separation has allowed each beach to develop its own unique personality. For surfing and fun, head to Geribá Beach. For snorkeling and diving, you'll want to check out quiet, deep Ferruda Beach. And if you want to see and be seen, make your way to Ossos Beach, where you can sip caipirinhas at a café while you watch the world go by.
