About

This is a great place to see lots of wealthy Cariocas enjoying their weekend away from the hustle-bustle of the city. The waves aren't the best around, but they are fun and are close to the best in Buzios.

Atmosphere:

It’s a nice, fun place, where you can surf during the day and during the night you can have fun at Rock Street (Rua das Pedras).
