We had an amazing time staying at Pousada Praia Joao Fernandes. The view from our room was amazing, as was the view from the restaurant and reception. The staff was very accommodating and friendly, especially Flor, Stephanie, and Cinthia. They were able to answer any questions we had. You can not beat the location. We were just 2 minutes from one of our favorite beaches. Every morning, we enjoyed a lovely breakfast provided at reception and enjoy a morning swim down at the beach. We will definitely be returning for another stay!

Very well located almost beach front. Breakfast was outstanding. The infrastructure needs to be taken care of, not everything works

Perfect location, rooms were amazing, the staff were phenomenal! The restaurant food and the continental breakfast were delicious! I would absolutely go back!

Away from the riff raff. Great breakfast and close to the beaches.

Had a lovely stay !

Friendly staff, beautiful location, rooms . Not one complaint

Great beach. The best in Buzios

Cool spot but maybe overrated a bit?! Nice spot and a lot of cute restaurants around but not sure the statue is that much of a deal. I’d suggest adding a little bit of a plaque with an explanation so it doesn’t go completely unnoticed!

Great place, great food and shopping too. Clean beaches, plenty variety hotels and restaurants along d coastline. Variety shopping options and many things to do. Water activities like taxi boat, jet skis and snorkling available at some places.

Lovely statue for selfies and in a beautiful beach location with lots of tourists.

This place is like a peace of heaven, mountains, water and too good restaurants. Loved it.

The statue itself is a fun spot for a photo op, but it's the town and the art all over it that will really charm you. There are fabulous sculptures everywhere, even in the sea. We feel lucky to have made this stop in Buzios as we'd never heard of it before.

Buzis don't go there at high season. Very Crowded .very Expensive .

Beautiful location.

Beautifully beach, but there are not turtles anymore. 🧓

Nice beach. Parking might be an issue, but there's some coffee shops for food and drinks. The sand was a bit dirty, the sea water has minimal waves, not cold. The view is amazing.

Cute little beach. Vendors are fairly aggressive and there isn’t a ton a “beach real estate” (as opposed to Cabo Frio’s beaches). Nonetheless, very pleasant especially if you walk out to the left where they are fewer people. There is also a public bathroom on the way out which comes in very handy if you want to rinse your feet before getting into your Uber (there is parking as you come in. 10 BRL as of August 2024).

Another great beach in Buzios. On the day of my visit it wasn't busy or overcrowded. We've met a nice lady that offered us umbrellas and the service she gave was excellent. The fish we ordered from her was superb and caipirinha just hit the spot. Beach itself bit narrow but it didn't bother me much. Really relaxing day in the nice surroundings.

Tartaruga Beach is beautiful however what is disappointing is the rubbish mainly plastic waste on the shoreline. As a tourist I ended up picking up and disposing of balls of fishing wire whilst locals looked on. Beach vendors that take up 1/2 the beach as their cash cow should be required to clean up all waste along the beach daily before business and visitors reminded to dispose of waste correctly.

We walk there what a great hike took the water taxi back loaded Beach with a great bar

Just wonderfull, small , quiet but great in drinks, food, apetizers, from germany, england and argentine cookers .

If you come to Búzios, this is one of the beaches you might want to visit. It is long, windy and has fine hot sand, where hurrying your feet feels nice. There is a serving shack, somewhat expensive but buying a couple beers will grant you access to the beach chairs and umbrellas.

If you are going to visit Buzios, this is the beach I recommend staying at, particularly if you rent a house (which is what we did). The surf can be a bit rough for very small kids, but some of the best waves for surfing/boogie boarding I have seen anywhere in the Atlantic Ocean. The beach itself is reasonably wide and not overly crowded. There are bars at one end for food.

wide beach plenty of space that allows to play ball, racket, etc.. without bothering anyone... it has different areas with stronger waves with some light surf combined with other areas more quiet where kids can play safely... the free space also allows to avoid the umbrella rent, something very difficult in other beach here at buzios. prices are lower too and since it bigger it has a very good variety for food and snacks... the nad part of the story... in theory Brazil laws prohibit to be charged for umbrella but this is something not being checked, therefore people at the beach charges what they want, even for undefined services or for using the umbrella and not consuming a minimum amount

Really nice place. Good for people that enjoy playing in the waves, but in the safety of the shallow ocean at the same time. Also you can easily swim further than the waves breaking and enjoy a calmer area. It can be quite windy. Large sand strand, really good to practice sports. Beautiful sunset can be watched there. And it is kinda cute how the beach is "hidden" with the little alley entrances. The only problem I experienced was people burying (very badly, IF they do it) the poop of their dogs. Definately not a place to let your kid dig up the sand and build castles with it...

Geriba Beach is one of those places that leave you in awe before the blessed, magnificent natural beauty. If you want to savor a state of amazement, go there.

Beautiful beach, great view. But very expensive.

The most beautiful beach. Took long walks in the morning while staying here on vacation.

Very nice place with white sands

Nice beach, pretty quiet when we went. The waves were wild though so bathe with care.

O point!

A beautiful little church up on a hill and the surrounding area and beaches are really pretty. You can get some fun photos-fishing boats on the sea, a cemetery, people on beaches on both sides, and then of course they church itself which was closed when we were there.

Picturesque little church on the top of the cliffs. Nice views around.

An ancient, historic church. A tranquil respite and perfect counterpoint after a couple of days ofsoaking up the sun on the beaches.

I took this pictures at the top...

Saquarema is amazing. It is called the capital of the surf.big waves, sun shine all of the year, handsome people.unforgetable experience.

Beautiful and blessed place

Blessed place.

Breathtaking!!!!! Outstanding!!!!

Fenomenal place

Great view

One of the most amazing National Parks in Brazil. Petrópolis - Teresópolis trail is a must. Among other attractions are "Dedo de Deus", waterfalls and breathtaking viewpoints.

This is a super beautiful park area that I visited in Teresopolis. I really enjoyed the fun of walking across all the rocks and sitting under the several waterfalls. This was during January and the weather was just perfect. I hope to visit the beautiful place again.

Beautiful region, with amazing scenarios and astonishing wildlife

good roads, short distances, nice views

I hiked from Petropolis to Teresopolis and it was one of the most technically difficult hikes I've done. There is this one part called the "little horse" where the only way to continue is to take your backpack off, grab the rock, swing your leg over the rock, and use your momentum to hoist your body on and over this large rock. Did I mention that this all takes place on cliff where if you fall you die? Yep! It was worth it and so incredibly beautiful but the trail is no joke! Doable if you do it in 2-3 days (carrying your camping gear) but a lot of altitude! I have hiked 36km/day in the snow, and found this hike to be a challenge physically and mentally.

Beautiful park, with a fun little road that goes a few km into the jungle. The view at the end of the Cartão Postal trail is worth the hike, but be warned that it's not easy. Don't attempt it if you're not in shape.

I really enjoyed the park. It has many waterfalls with small natural pools. Accessible, requires a short hiking of 5-10 minutes to get to most of the natural pools. Very relaxing and calm.

Access is free on Wednesdays and is a self tour across the palace. It takes about 1hr if you pay attention to the details. Worth visiting in Petrópolis.

It is a cultural visit to understand how was the daily basics of the emperor and he's wife and way to do so.

If you were a bad student as me, this is the opportunity to know the history of Brazil. We have just 63 years of kingdom here in Brazil but until our "freedom" or beginning of the democrat republicans there are very interesting issues inside the museum.

Beautiful palace. Mostly everything written in portuguese You can pay CASH ONLY! The slippers that they give you to put on your shoes are very dangerous and disgusting dirty. Could search for another option for visitors! No photos allowed.

Great palace. Free entrance when we went. We had to wear covers for our shoes. Great collection.

You're required to wear slippers over your shoes to protect the floors, but unfortunately they are one size fits some and you'll likely be pseudo-skating around the museum. Also, you're required to check all belongings before entering, including cameras. Photography is not allowed inside, with or without flash. Other than these minor things, worth the trip! Definitely recommend, just be aware what you're in for.

Quite interesting to see how decadent the royal family was while their countries (Brazil and Portugal) suffered. The museum is free sometimes and cheap the rest of the time. It would get 5 stars if they allowed photos inside and dispensed with the awkward slippers they furnish you to preserve the hardwood floors.

What a fabulous structure, amazing how the first two meters of the structure is cut stone while the remainder is built with concrete to represent the people. It is in an idealistic location overlooking the river, and is very well maintained. One thing to be aware of is shorts are not the preferred clothing item. An ideal location for reflection and some quiet time.

History buffs must stop here! Pro: - king and queen grave - gorgeous architecture - incredible carvings - well maintained - free Con: - nothing

Great architecture experience. Historic place that took place under the Pedro II dinasty.

Beautiful church ⛪️ with amazing stained glass with the best detailed designs! Free to visit

Cathedral in Petropolis. After their exile to and death in Europe, the remains of the last Brazilian emperor Pedro II and his wife were laid to rest here in marble tombs. His surviving daughter and her French husband are also entombed here. Of interest to those interested in 19th century imperial history of Brazil.

Beautiful Cathedral, its history is worth the visit!

Calm and quiet place. Nice church, no cost.

This is a beautiful island to visit. A very peaceful area to go if you need some peace from Rio. You can walk or take a bike around the island.

I went to Paquetá in the middle of November. The weather was breezy and the air was fresh. It was completely quiet and calm, perfect for a weekend.

Beautiful and safe little island 🤩 Easy to visit there by ferry. Ferry price is very reasonable and the trip by ferry is very comfortable. The Island itself is very small but worth visiting. Peaceful, easy to walk around. When it's sunny, sunset and sunrise are very beautiful, and can be very romantic.

The ferry is a fun trip and it's a nice day trip from Rio, but as the beaches aren't good for swimming and there aren't great restaurants it's pretty quiet. There's not a lot to do, we walked around the southern part of the island and it's pretty but not necessarily worth the effort if you're short on time. We took the 9am ferry and were ready to leave by noon but took the 2:30 return. There is a pretty good ice cream place right by the terminal.

small island only bikes no cars quite couple of Restaurants

The hidden treasure of Rio de Janeiro. A butterfly shaped island in Guanabara Bay, so enchanting, so peaceful, no cars allowed, only service vehicles, like ambulance, firetruck, lighting company, garbage. Full of all types birds, monkeys in the trees and dogs sleeping in the streets. Brazil's version of Romeo and Juliet is set here in the novel, A Moreninha. Portrayed on film decades ago by Sonia Braga

Good place to ride a bike - round trip around the small island

I had an amazing experience at Restaurante Cervejaria Bohemia in Petrópolis. The setting is beautiful — inside the historic Bohemia brewery — and the ambiance is lively yet cozy. The food was outstanding! I had the Angus flat iron steak, perfectly cooked and beautifully plated. Everything is clearly designed to pair with their incredible craft beers, which are brewed right there on-site. The staff was attentive and friendly, and the view from the upstairs restaurant added a special touch. After lunch, I visited the brewery museum — which I highly recommend if you’re into beer culture or Brazilian history.

Nice place, especially beer tasting, gift shop is also interesting😀

Brazil's oldest brewery was founded by German immigrants in the mountainous summer getaway of Petrópolis in 1853. It was once the preferred beer of the Portuguese royal family. While mass production shifted to São Paulo in 1998, Bohemia reopened its original location in 2012 as a specialty brewery museum, bar, and restaurant. The interactive guided tour explores the history of beer and specifically Bohemia, offering tastings and a visit to the barrel-aging beer cave.

Esther was an excellent guide! She gave thoughtful, funny and kind insights of the beer process and its history. She also always made sure we had no questions left. Amazing work!

Deep history:) fun tastings of the beer!

Absolutely 5 stars. The venue is very well mainland the 44 real tour was amazing. They did a great job explaining beer making process and so many fun facts.

This was one of the best parts of my visit in Petropolis. The first half of the tour is a museum of the history and science of beer. The displays are in Portuguese, but almost all of them have English translations. The displays were beautiful and informative. The last half is a guided tour. Our guide spoke in Portuguese, which was difficult for me. However, most of the displays were straightforward enough and interesting enough that I wasn't bored and didn't feel left out. After the guided tour, we were given a flight of 3 different beers to taste (and children were given juice so they didn't feel left out). The gift shop had many great gifts for me to bring back home. The restaurant had great vegetarian options (and of course, beer), and the service was excellent. I highly recommend you do this tour!

Didn't know this story, but it was the highlight of the whole "Petropolis" tour for me, being that I love aviation.

No pix, no amex. cash, debit or credit only. Great history spot, small (but he was a small guy) great piece of history! Worth the trio!

Nice place, can see why he built a glider to get to the bottom of the mountain. He was a bit later to fly, just after the Wright Brothers.

I went on his birthday and it was very busy, however it was great to learn more about the type of person he was and his lovely house.

Very informative and interesting small museum, one of the best places in Petropolis.

The House of Santos Dumont is a great place to visit. I got surprised when I saw how simple he lived behind the big intelligence he had. The history of this great person brings pride of such human and the benefits he brought to the humandade.

Beautiful site with a rich history and gorgeous scale replicas of Santos' creations, and the original house designed by Santos Dumont himself. The entrance fee is decent, and they offer a video (with English subtitles) that tells the true story of Mr. Dumont. This is a must-visit site for fans of aviation history. Keep in mind the stairs are steep (which is part of the original history of the house), but there is an elevator available for people who have difficulty.

Very good attraction. It gets really busy so be prepared to be pushing and shoving. Everybody is trying to get the best spot to record the videos. They do have nice foods and souvenir shop on top of the mountain. There is always entertainment going on like live music.

Sugarloaf in Rio offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city, beaches, and mountains, absolutely worth the visit. The cable car ride is smooth and scenic. It can get very crowded, especially during peak hours, so try to go early or on a weekday. There are a few shops and places to grab a snack at the top, but prices are a bit high. Still, the overall experience is unforgettable and a must-do while in Rio!

We came here early to avoid the long line. A glass cable car carried us to the top of iconic Sugar Loaf Mountain, actually expect to ride second cable car to real mountain top, which is a symbol of the city, in ideal conditions, I supposed to see the stunning panorama of the beaches, Corcovado Mountain, downtown Rio, and Guanabara Bay, etc. actually what you can see is by chance, the mist of cloud always come across to make you wonder, and it's hard to take a good picture of the stunning panoramic view of bay. There are squirrel-like primates called marmosets which can be spotted near the cable car stations and trails on the mountain , a species native to eastern Brazil. The tourists are discouraged to feed them.

A world class experience. Preferable to book the cable car tickets in advance to avoid disappointment. There are queues to board and alight from the cable cars. The 2 levels of the cable car stations provide varied views of the city of Rio from the top. The vistas are breathtaking. It can get a little cold at the top, so dress accordingly. The Christ Redeemer statue can be seen from the top. There a few expensive stores and good cafés at the top. Toilet and drinking water facilities are good. Best time to visit is around the sunset time to get the night views of the city.

Beautiful! It’s a stop you cannot miss in Rio. I loved it!

A definite must do while you are here. The views are great and there’s heaps of little shops and restaurants on top. The history of the build is also really interesting

A must place to visit if visiting Rio. Usual problems of crowds. Really busy mid morning with cruise ship tours etc. Go early or later also mid day was quiet

A once in a lifetime experience. Make sure to go on it with a tour.

The view here is totally beautiful. Look at Rio from a wide angle view is breathtaking. There was a party there when I visited, so it’s even a better experience for me.

Beautiful view

Amazing view of the whole Rio. On a sunny day you can see even Cristo Redentor

The Morro da Urca/Pão de Açucar (Sugarloaf) Hike is a great alternative to the cable cars. The Morro da Urca/Sugarloaf (Pão de Açucar) Hike starts at the beautiful idyllic beach, known as Praia Vermelho (the Red Beach). You begin hiking a short paved path along the base of Morro da Urca before you ascend the tree root staircase to the top of Morro da Urca. Along the path up you will have a great chance of seeing the buffy-tufted marmoset or white-eared marmoset. After about half an hour you will reach a mini plateau or saddle which offers you a beautiful view over Botafogo bay and Flamengo. The last 15 minutes take you to the top of Morro da Urca where you will have spectacular views over the entire city of Rio. You will continue our trip with a breath-taking cable car ride to the top of sugarloaf for even more panoramic and picturesque views. You have to buy your tickets before you hike to take advantage of the cable cars. You cannot buy them at the top. End your day with a classic appetizer and beverage on the Urca wall near Bar da Urca, a popular destination for locals taking in the sunset. Hike: Moderate Time: 1.5 hours round trip; 45 minutes with cable car

Beautiful views when a nice day. There is also a lot of things up on both mountains which I was quite surprised at! It would of been nice to keep it at just the cable car and a viewing platform but I guess it appeals to tourists.

Just look the photos! Amazing view ✨

It could really be pack after 10am. So, if you’d like a nice photo, do go early! We had to go back a 2nd time to get nice photo taken without people everywhere!

The stairs themselves are stunning but the sheer number of people trying to pose on them makes it overwhelming and takes away from the art. Go early or in the rain for the best chance at a decent view. The street leading up to the steps is full of souvenir stalls that are actually pretty well priced compared to the same stuff at Christ the Redeemer or Ipanema.

I came here twice, solely because it was so ridiculously busy the first time I thought it deserved a second go. The first was on a Saturday around 12. It was so insanely busy you could barely move let alone get any sort of pictures or enjoyment. The second was on a Monday around 10:30 it was still very busy but far less people. You could walk without getting in the way of to many people's photos and find a spot to take your own. Well the stairs are very beautiful, and it is completely free. I wouldn't say it is an absolute must see. If it's a stop on your tour, or nearby where you're staying I think go for it. But I wouldn't go out of my way to see it.

Such an amazing vibe with beautiful artwork on the steps. It can be a bit crowded, but it is so worth the trip. Grab a caprihana and stroll on up the steps. Great little shops at the bottom to check out too.

Easy to miss if you're going from up top. The stair view can be enjoyed from tje bottom only. They're located on a 5-10 minute walk from the cathedral and are definitely worth a visit.

Sept.25: would have gotten 5 stars if it wasn't so overcrowded. We unfortunately visited on Sunday afternoon, lots of tourists which all took their time to get pictures... It was even hard only to enter the stairs just to go up.

This place is an iconic one. I went there late in the afternoon and was packed! Still, flocks of people would come and go leaving good time to take pictures. However, the best moment to be there is very very early in the morning like 6.30am, sun rises around 6-6.18am so it'll be well lit and everything, and most importantly, empty! You don't need to buy a ticket to enter this place since it's open for everyone. Just be careful of your belongings as always, pay attention to your surroundings and you'd be just fine! If you have enough time it's really amazing to really pay attention to the different ceramic tiles, also, be careful on where you step, after all it's ceramic so it can be slippery or tricky at times.

The beach is beautiful. It was a bit wavy given I visited in the end of September and the water was a bit cold but it was really enjoyable and refreshing on hot days. There are many retailers that occasionally can try hard to sell whatever they have. It should also be known that this is not the safest place to be. One has to be very careful with his belongings and where to sit to avoid

Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro is everything you imagine it to be — and more! The moment you step onto the soft golden sand, you can feel the vibrant energy that makes this beach world-famous. The stunning curve of the coastline, framed by lush green hills and the rhythmic sound of the Atlantic waves, creates a picture-perfect scene that feels straight out of a postcard. What makes Copacabana so special is the unique blend of relaxation and excitement. In the mornings, it’s peaceful and ideal for a refreshing swim or a quiet walk along the promenade. As the day goes on, the beach comes alive with locals playing volleyball and football, vendors selling refreshing coconut water, and musicians adding a joyful samba rhythm to the air. The iconic black-and-white wave-patterned boardwalk is another highlight — perfect for strolling, cycling, or simply soaking in the view of the sea and city skyline. There are plenty of beachfront cafés and kiosks where you can enjoy delicious Brazilian snacks and fresh juices while watching the sunset paint the sky in shades of orange and pink. Copacabana Beach isn’t just a place — it’s an experience of Rio’s soul: warm, lively, and unforgettable. Whether you go to relax, meet people, or simply admire the breathtaking scenery, it’s a destination that leaves a lasting impression. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Rio — Copacabana is pure magic. 🇧🇷✨

Sept.25: We went to the famous Copacabana Beach. We taught it would be crowded as it was weekend, however this wasn't the case. There were a lot of local vendors selling all kinds of stuff & many different food, icecreams & drinks. Some brought a complete umbrella with bikinis & thongs as well as really nice looking grilled big scampis (we didn't try as we didn't know how long they were exposed to sun, etc.) & many more. As we need to get the Copacabana beach vipe, we bought a 700ML freshly pressed lime caipirinha. Delicious, but with the sun & almost on an empty stomach; I got hit very fast. In the far we saw Christ the Redeemer (big, famous Jezus statue of 30 m height on a hill), we hope to visit one of these days.

Here's a good review of Copacabana beach: Copacabana is more than just a beach; it's the vibrant, beating heart of Rio de Janeiro. The moment you step onto its famous wave-patterned promenade, you feel an electric energy. The 4km stretch of sand is a democratic playground for everyone—you'll see intense games of footvolley, locals sunbathing, and tourists sipping água de coco from the countless kiosks. The view is spectacular, with the curving bay framed by Sugarloaf Mountain on one end. It’s a must-see for its sheer iconic status and incredible people-watching, capturing the city's lively spirit perfectly.

One of the famous beaches in the world was worth visiting. A fairly clean that has many things to offer - from food stalls to watching people play volleyball, soccer and other games, enjoying a nice drink, snacks and food. A good place to get your morning or afternoon walk/run as well. A safe place compared to some parts of Rio. From good to excellent hotels across the beach.

Loved this beach, it is great for long walks, it’s clean enough, it’s possible to see a beautiful sunset there. Really liked the fact that it was possible to pay by card for sunbeds, umbrellas and drinks. It’s often very busy there and I loved that vibe.

🔟 / 🔟 Hello, we were here. I have to say right from the start, this is one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever been, simply paradise. I really, really enjoyed my time here. There are a lot of interesting people here. Feel free to come here with your friends, family, partners or alone. Enjoy this paradise. We'd love to come back. See you next time. ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

Famous beach, chill and safe. Can walk

Arpoador Beach is beautiful! 🌅 A perfect spot to enjoy the view and relax.

Loved this beach so much, great for surfers too, it’s big and friendly, if you come to Rio you definitely should visit it❤️

Fantastic views, location, and service! The room was good size, modern, clean, and our balcony had a hammock which I enjoyed. Breakfast was included and amazing every day. The front desk staff was super helpful and spoke English. I would stay there again in a heartbeat!

A beautiful place to take photos and videos and to chill in the sun. You can also find a lot of activities like an improvised beach gym, surfing, table tennis and others

Go up the rocks and enjoy another great view of Rio. You can see the beaches of Arpoador, Ipanema and Leblon on your right and maybe you can get a quick view of the Christ statue if you look behind the buildings. If you are there, just wait until the sunset, and enjoy the view.

Absolutely love this place. Go here often during my 3-month stay.

Several stores , not really outlet price in my opinion - I saw most of stores with progressive discount system which forces you to buy too many items in the same store so you can see a price benefit. Looks safe with many guards.

Amazing place to go and find good prices

Nice clothes, good quality but too expensive for an outlet. We left together with 6 other customers because the airconditioner made it unsupportable to shop quietly. Far too cold.

Good place for shopping. International clothing and sports brands at very reasonable prices. Huge parking space. But, no signs of mentioning parking fees and spots to pay.

The place is big, clean and it has good options but unfortunately some stores displays products that are not on sale. This is absurd and outrageous! It's an outlet for God sake!

Excellent shopping structure but in the day that I went me and many people faced issues with park payment and to go out from there. It was 12/16/2017.

we can offer kn95 OR n95 masks with top quality and the best price. pls contact me. email: ferrezhou@gmail.com

Great beach stunning views of the mountains. Come with a group that preferably speaks Portuguese, people come up to you constantly trying to sell things and also ask for selfies. Beautiful people and great water, but with only two people it did feel very vulnerable.

The beach is spectacular and really good for people watching and sunbathing. It is never boring to stroll along the beach and notice all the happenings. Plenty of vendors to dine and entertain.

Beautiful beach to walk all the way through, got the opportunity to see the sunset here and it was stunning. They have exercise stations and a beach gym to get a nice workout

Probably the most beautiful beach in Rio, much better than Copacabana due to the view. There are vendors and people who rent umbrellas and such, but they were never too pushy like some people say. Overall a very chill vibe. I recommend buying the street corner as a snack, it’s very good!

Amazing beach, but NEVER buy anything from the walking sellers. I paied 1000$ for one caipirinha😢 They hacked the paymemt terminal , even applepay doesn’ help. So be careful

Ipanema Beach is absolutely stunning! The golden sand, turquoise waters, and breathtaking view of the Dois Irmãos mountains make it one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The atmosphere is lively, with beach vendors, music, and people playing footvolley. The sunset here is unforgettable! It's a great spot to relax, but also perfect if you're looking for a more social beach experience. Just be mindful of your belongings, as petty theft can be an issue. Overall, a must-visit when in Rio! 🌊☀️🏖️

The beach itself is lovely but the beach vendor paraiso tropical 96 ruined the day. If you go to the beach avoid Paraiso Tropical 96!!!!!!Completely over charged us. €141 (850 Brazil Real) for two chairs, an umbrella and two waters.

Soft soft white beach when you step on the sand its like stepping into fresh snow that crunch sound! We walked from Abraão beach through the forest. If you are a hiker I recommend it, its a 2hr hike. BUT I’m not a hiker so took us 3 hrs while it was beautiful and we saw monkeys and birds if i do it again I’d take a boat so i have more time on the beach

Very good beach if you are a surfer. There are large waves there. If you want to swim this isn't the place. There are surfing schools on the beach, stands with drinks. There is no taxi boat that you can take from there (unless you have arranged pick up in advance).

This place is SURREAL! We got to visit this beach early in the morning and it was a magical moment alone in the world! There is a small walk of around 15 minutes to get there, if you are lucky enough you will spot monkeys and birds !

One of the most beautiful beach if ever seen. The sand is really white like in the movies and the water is so clean and nice. Once you there you don’t want to leave I promise you! A must see when you visit Ihla Grande! I recommend to hike to the beach it’s quiet challenging but nice to climb up and down through the tropical forest. And as mentioned before, definitely worth it

Very long sandy beach. Apparently once voted among the best beaches in the world but I don't see why, as it is not very special or photogenic. The life guards mark most of the beach unsafe to swim and only leave a small part open in front of their watch tower. But that part is so shallow that it's not possible to swim there and beyond that there are huge waves so again not swimmable. The best thing about the beach is that it is so big you can find a spot with no one around. The trail to get there from the drop off point is about 20 minutes and you can see some cute looking monkeys there if you're lucky.

What a beach 🏝 a real paradise beach. The beach is very long so you can easily find a suite spot away from the crowds. There is little food and drinks for sale on the beach, so make sure you bring some before you leave. It is also a bit of a muddy hike trough the jungle before you get to the beach, so best to wear the right footwear

Absolutely incredible beach. The sand is fine. The ground is clean. The waves are huge! We hiked 3 hours from Vila de Abraão and it was absolutely challenging and worth it. A must see when on Ilha Grande and Brazil!

Beautiful lagoon, but not as pretty as the Green one from the same trip. The blue lagoon is getting dirtier due to the amount of tourists there. It was crowded with mini boats. Please take good care when you visit there!

(Translated by Google) Wonderful experience in this paradisiacal place. It was a quick visit but it was worth it and left me wanting to come back again. (Original) Experiência maravilhosa nesse lugar paradisíaco. Foi uma passagem rápida mas valeu demais e ficar con gostinho de querer voltar mais vezes.

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful stops in Angra dos Reis, great for diving, taking photos and relaxing. The water has a surprising color. I can't swim and I used noodles, but I was able to stay there without any problems (but don't stray too far and be careful!) (Original) Uma das paradas mais lindas de Angra dos Reis, linda para mergulho, fotos e relaxar. Água de uma coloração surpreendente. Não sei nadar e usei macarrão, consegui ficar tranquilamente no local (mas não se afaste e tome cuidado!)

(Translated by Google) Great place to have fun with friends and family, a peaceful environment that transmits peace and we see the perfect nature of the creation of the creator of heaven and earth, the little fish enchant the heart!! (Original) Ótimo lugar para se divertir com amigos e familiares, ambiente tranquilo que transmite paz e enxergamos a natureza perfeita da criação do criador do céu e da terra, os peixinhos encanta o coração!!

(Translated by Google) It's very beautiful here. Both above and below the water. Especially the below-water part is of a beauty that unfortunately doesn't last long. It's being destroyed by barbecue boats that throw trash into the water. Paper with mayonnaise, bones, cans, bags, plastic cups, straws, cigarette butts. They play funk music so loud that you can't even talk 100 meters away. In addition, there were about 80 jetskis competing, above the corals, above the fish that are the reason for the beauty of the place! We know that these machines ruin the peace above the water. But it's 10x worse below the water, it disrupts life there, right? I wanted to cry, I felt so sad. Is it not possible to enjoy the beauty without destroying it? (Original) É muito bonito aqui. Tanto da parte acima da água, e tanto da parte abaixo da água. Especialmente a parte abaixo da água é de uma beleza infelizmente pouca resistente. Tá sendo destruído por barquinhos de churrasco que joga lixo nas águas. Papel com maionese, ossos, latas, sacolas, copos plásticos, canudos, bitucas. Tocam música funk tão alta que não dá nem conversar a 100 metros distância. Além disso, tinha uns 80 jetski fazendo competição, acima dos corais, acima dos peixes que são o razão da beleza do lugar! Sabemos quê essas máquinas acabam com o sossego acima da água. Mas é 10x pior abaixo da água, desregula a vida ali neh. Deu vontade de chorar, senti muito triste. Será que não dá aproveitar a beleza sem destruir lá?

(Translated by Google) Magnificent little cove, turquoise water and fish in abundance, an open-air aquarium. Keep your eyes peeled, there are magnificent sea turtles to observe. I recommend arriving very early in the morning (fishermen or taxi boats can take you there for a few euros). After a certain hour it's really no longer pleasant (large boats full of tourists, loud music, drop anchor and greatly degrade the tranquility and magic of the place). (Original) Magnifique petite crique, eau turquoise et poissons à profusion, un aquarium à ciel ouvert. Bien ouvrir l’œil, il y a des tortues de mer magnifique à observer. Je conseil d’arriver très tôt le matin (des pêcheurs ou bateaux taxi peuvent vous y emmener pour quelques euros). Après une certaine heure ce n’est vraiment plus agréable (de gros bateaux plein de touristes, musique à tue-tête, jettent l’ancre et dégradent fortement la quiétude et magie de l’endroit).

(Translated by Google) A stunning place. The center of almost all the tours offered in Abraao, and for good reason. The clear, blue waters, which give it its name, have plenty of fish to see. They sell coconut sweets that take you to the boat to die for. Don't miss out on trying them. (Original) Un lugar impresionante. Centro de casi todos los tours que ofrecen en abraao y con toda la razón. Aguas claras y azules que le dan su nombre con muchos peces para ver. Venden unos dulces de coco que te llevan al bote para morirse no dejen de probarlos.

Nice beach to kayak or take a boat to the Island

Basic beach, not particularly attractive and lacks facilities. Convenient access from the highway to park your car and get on a small boat to the nearest islands (Pelado, Peladinho and Cedro)

(Translated by Google) We loved it so much we returned. Simple rooms, so don't expect luxury. Excellent service and a space for children to play, with free-roaming rabbits and guinea pigs, visits from monkeys, a pool, and a playground. We will definitely return on our next visit to Paraty. (Original) Amamos tanto que retornamos. Quartos simples, não espere luxo. Excelente atendimento e espaço pra crianças brincarem, coelhos e porquinhos da índia livres, visitas de macaquinhos, piscina e playground. Certamente retornaremos na próxima visita a Paraty

(Translated by Google) For those seeking peace and quiet with family, this resort was a pleasant surprise. Everything was very clean and organized. We were very well received by Ayanna, who showed us the complete location. A resort in the middle of nature, with birds and animals. Located very close to Jabaquara beach, within walking distance. Market and everything nearby. (Negative point: a resort like this doesn't sell water, but some drinks are available. A small bar near the pool would have made everything more perfect.) But with this resort, you don't even want to leave. Where is the pool? At Jucuzzi. Thank you for receiving us so well... see you soon. (Original) Pra quem procura paz lugar tranquilo com a família achou esse resort surpreendeu Tudo muito limpo organizado fomos recebidos muito bem pela ayanna mostrou local completo pra gente Um resort em Meio a natureza os passarinhos os bichos Local bem pertinho praia Jabaquara dá pra ir pé Mercado tudo próximo ( ponto negativo é um resort desse não vender água vende alguma bebida, faltou um pequeno bar próximo piscina pra tudo fica mais perfeito . Mais com esse resort da nem Vontade de sair aonde fica na piscina na jucuzzi Obgd por receber a gente tão bem .. até breve

(Translated by Google) The hotel is beautiful and well-kept! It's even nicer in person... They have a full breakfast with fruit, natural juices, cakes, pies, and cold cuts. Everyone at the hotel is very attentive. And there are lots of birds. I highly recommend it for families... I loved it! (Original) O Hotel é lindo e bem cuidado! Pessoalmente é muito mais bonito...tem um café da manhã completo desde frutas, sucos naturais, bolos , tortas e frios. Todos do hotel muito atenciosos.

(Translated by Google) Excellent space, although Jabaquara beach is not very suitable for swimming. The hotel offers a great breakfast, with a pleasant and varied menu. For children, there is a heated pool, games room, playroom, tree climbing circuit, mini zip line, swing, large trampoline, soccer field, basketball court, slackline, as well as the possibility of interacting with and feeding the monkeys, rabbits, chickens and fish. The location also favors access to the historic center and other beaches in the region. (Original) Excelente espaço, apesar de a praia do Jabaquara não ser muito própria para banho. O hotel oferece um ótimo café da manhã, com cardápio agradável e variado. Para as crianças tem piscina aquecida, sala de jogos, brinquedoteca, circuito de arvorismo, mini tirolesa, balanço, trampolim grande, campo de futebol, quadra de basquete, slakline, além da possibilidade de interagir e alimentar os micos, coelhos, galinhas e peixes. A localização tbm favorece o acesso ao centro histórico e a outras praias da região.

A place where you want to take a swim or at least walk in water, especially on a very hot day. To get to the place, you need to walk a bit, but I wouldn't even call it a hike. It's a nice walk through a forest. No tickets to get to the falls are needed.

This was amazing! Definitely a must visit!! We went on a rainy day, which was actually perfect! Make sure to bring your swimsuit, because you can take incredible pics here! (it may have been due to the rain, but we did not pay for entrance. I think I saw a sign that normally there is an entrance fee but we’re not sure as the desk was closed)

Around 100 metres from the church at Penha you will arrive at the river where the rock formation is used by locals and tourists as a slide. A few steps to the middle of the river where you can slide down! It is so much fun and the locals even surf down it. It’s free admission and there are small pool formations at the bottom, middle and top for refreshing. Definitely work a visit if you’re staying in Paraty. You definitely do not need a guide; we caught the o local bus from Paraty bus station for R$5 per person to Penha, you can’t miss it.

I didn't expect much from this local attraction but to be honest I was absolutely blown away by it! It was extreme fun watching locals pulling off incredible tricks as well as sliding yourself. It is quite bigger than in the pictures and don't worry it is absolutely safe though there are spots on the slide that can be quite painful. But no worries, nothing too serious! The locals are there to help you slide. Ask them to take you into the waterfall right next to it. You can enter the waterfall, chill inside and then slide out again. Amazing experience! It is all for free but if you appreciate locals' help, you can give them a tip in the tip jar hanging on the tree next to the slide. Absolutely recommended to anyone staying in Paraty! Taxis will take you here for about 40 Reals.

Such a fun experience! Paid R$20 for parking and there are toilets in the car park you can use and don’t have to pay extra for when you pay for parking. 5 min walk to the bottom of the waterfalls. 5 min climb up to the top. 2 life guards helping people slide down the waterfalls (it’s like a natural water slide). There is a restaurant at the top which we didn’t go to but it looked nice!

Nice waterfall on rocks, right on the end of the road of gold. Has a nice restaurant watching over the falls.

Awesome and beautiful spot! The natural slide is a ton of fun and the food at the restaurant was excellent as well. Highly recommend visiting here 👍👍’s @nothin_but_views
