Buzios

With 17 stunning beaches to choose from the peninsula of Buzios of a sand and sun lover’s paradise. With its cobblestone streets and old fishing village vibe, the three towns of Ossos, Armacao de Buzios and Manguinhos that make up this tropical destination are filled with a Mediterranean charm that’s not typical in the rest of Brazil. 
Travelers can wander the scenic pathway known as Orla Bardot, named after Bridgette Bardot, who it’s said discovered this mystical place, which winds along the turquoise coastline. A visit to the impressive yacht clubs where the wealthy come offers a look at the region’s elite, while a strong cocktail at one of the outdoor cafes that line city streets proves ideal for people-watching. 

Practical Info

Ossoos, which is located at the northern tip of Buzios, is known for its pristine beaches, but travelers looking for nightlife and other tourist attractions would do well to visit the well-developed Armacao instead.
