Highlights

Enjoy the Buzios coastline from a different perspective and on a different way in this 3-hour schooner trip. Travel through the Búzio peninsula on a Schooner with a certified guide that will take you to the best beaches around like Praia da Armação and Praia dos Amores.

Itinerary

  1. Take your first stop at Ilha Feia, one of the most secluded beaches in Buzios. Enjoy swimming in the clear waters before getting back to the schooner

    30 min

  2. The beach has calm waters perfect for kayaking, as well as cliffs for snorkeling. It is not by chance that it is a mandatory stop for schooner tours.

    30 min

  3. Azeda beach, with calm and transparent waters, is among the most beautiful in Brazil - surrounded by rocky walls and abundant vegetation - being therefore an Environmental Protection Area. All the kiosks and bars were removed from the sand. There are only makeshift boats that serve drinks and rent chairs and umbrellas.

    30 min

  4. According to the weather, tide and wind conditions, destinations can change. If so, you may visit the Tartaruga Beach instead of any other. The beach has calm waters and, generally, the warmest in the region, since it does not receive the cold currents of Antarctica. Take the opportunity to dive with a mask and snorkel on the cliffs in the right corner. Along the extensive strip of sand, kiosks for all tastes spread out tables, chairs and sun loungers.

About Búzios

Búzios is a peninsula of rocky coves, calm beaches and a whitewashed old fishing village on the coast of Rio de Janeiro state, east of the city.

Armação dos Búzios occupies a small peninsula with more than twenty beaches, from Geribá, popular with surfers, to the sheltered horseshoe bay of Ferradura. The old fishing village was little known until the 1960s, when the French actress Brigitte Bardot visited, and a statue of her now sits on the seafront promenade named after her. The Rua das Pedras, a cobbled street of shops and restaurants, is the village's main street.
