🏖️ João Fernandes Beach
One of Búzios’s best-known beaches, surrounded by calm waters and beautiful scenery.
Discover the jewel of Região dos Lagos and enjoy some of Brazil’s most charming beaches on a complete experience from Rio de Janeiro.
Discover Búzios, the jewel of Região dos Lagos on the northern coast of Rio de Janeiro state. Approximately 160 km from Rio, Búzios offers beaches of different shapes and landscapes to enjoy throughout the year.
The journey from Rio to Armação de Búzios takes around 2 hours 40 minutes depending on traffic. On arrival, we board the schooner to explore some of the region’s most beautiful beaches.

For me, Búzios is the choice if you want to combine a schooner tour with the free time on Rua das Pedras described in this day trip from Rio. If you prefer to focus on beaches and a boat trip, compare Arraial do Cabo or the island route in Angra / Ilha Grande. Check each option’s itinerary and conditions before choosing.

The boat has music, bar service and toilets. Schooners in Búzios cannot approach the sand, so swimming takes place around the boat. The trip is subject to weather conditions and Brazilian Navy authorisation; if navigation is prohibited, the activity may take place on land.
