Búzios safety: what to do if something happens

190 Police; 192 SAMU medical emergency; 193 Fire Service; 180 guidance and reporting for violence against women. Use 190 for immediate danger and 192 for medical emergencies. Save your accommodation address and landmark and share your location with someone you trust when appropriate. Follow the responding service’s instructions.

Separate belongings, sea conditions and heat. Carry essentials and agree who watches valuables instead of leaving phones exposed while everyone swims. Check signs, wind and swell; a calm photo does not show today’s conditions. Plan water, shade and return. For remote beaches or trails, share your plan and do not depend on continuous signal.

Get to safety first. From another device, contact your operator to block the SIM, use device-lock tools and notify banks and payment apps. Change critical credentials on a trusted device and report through the appropriate police channel. Then consult insurance and retain records. Do not confront a holder or attempt recovery yourself by following a map location.

For a lost passport, report the loss and contact your consulate; confirm accepted documents with the airline or transport provider before travelling to the airport. Check payment amounts and recipients. Before rental deposits verify the manager, address, actual unit, dates, cancellation and receipts; photos do not establish ownership or availability. For activities check the operator, restrictions and weather terms.

Plan arrivals and returns with a clear address, connection and battery. CEAM offers municipal support to women experiencing violence; Portal da Mulher Buziana provides current service channels. Consult it for Patrulha Maria da Penha and specialist support without assuming operating hours. Immediate danger: 190; guidance: 180.
