Cabo Frio - Praias

Praia do Forte


With a length of 7.5 km, the main beach and postcard of Cabo Frio takes its name from the fact Fort São Matheus is located at its left end. The crystal blue waters are an invitation to scuba diving for locals and tourists alike. Being open sea, the beach is excellent for water sports, attracting sailors from all over the world in sailing competitions. It has infrastructure and a wide gastronomic offer, including a waterfront full of bars, restaurants and shops open until late at night.Praia do Forte

Praia do Peró


Sweetheart of surfers, Praia do Peró is 7km long and has great waves. Because it is further away from the city center, about 10km from Cabo Frio, it is highly sought after by those who prefer quieter places and away from the large crowds. The endemic nature of this beach, which is part of the Costa do Sol State Park, earned the international Blue Flag seal in 2018. The rigorous award attests to the quality of the sand, water, as well as the ease of access, mobility and safety. The certification has already been renewed for three consecutive years.Praia do Peró

Ilha do Japonês [Japanese Island]


The artificial island was created to facilitate the flow of fish in the region. The story behind the name comes from a man with oriental features who was said to have been born in Yokohama, Japan, and lived on the island. The place with calm and crystal clear waters is highly sought after by families in search of tranquility and safety for the children. The tour can be extended throughout the day, as the place has a great offer of kiosks. For nature lovers, it is possible to go hiking and end the tour with a stunning sunset.
