What you will Love about Buzios, Rio Janeiro, Brazil
Buzios is a beautiful seaside town on a peninsula surrounded by 23 beaches, receiving sea currents from the Equator on one side and sea currents from the South Pole on the other, which means it has beaches with warm waters.
Among the main beaches of Brazil — Geribá, Tucuns, João Fernandes, Ferradura, Ferradurinha, Marina, Armação, Manguinhos, Tartaruga, Ossos, Brava and Olho-de-Boi — stand out, the latter reserved for the practice of naturism.
Maravilha retreat sits on an acre of beautiful landscaped property high on a hill with 180 degree ocean and island views. The property is a simple 10 minute walk to three beaches (Geriba, Ferradurinha and Amores) that have sand surf breaks as well as a rocky bay that offers wonderful snorkeling where you can observe tropical fish and sea turtles year-round.
