We were lucky to be there when it was not crowded at all. There are no waves. It felt like being in a private beach that looks like a swimming pool. My preferred beach in buzios. On the way back, we even enjoyed live reggea music.

This beach is very crowded in season period but the water is lovely fresh like the ocean is. Tha sand is nothing special.

Too busy. I thought there were many other cleaner & less populated beaches in Buzios. Numerous food restaurants but really none with a restaurant on the beach. They would take your order & deliver which was great service but sometimes difficult when you're crammed in on the beach. I would prefer Rocka Fish restaurant with a smaller but less populated beach & better quality food.

Lots of fun water sports, waterski, banana boats, SUP but cold water and not much beach space. Was too windy the day we went with chairs blowing away.

It was very very crowded when we visited it. Sea water is crystal, however freezing. It's possible to climb the rocks and observe fish around the beach.There are only 2 beach bars. They charge you 30 reais for rent an umbrella and 2 chairs. What's is the average price in Buzios. However, the staff can be a bit annoying and they want to force you to order food from them. The menu consists basically in fried fish and shrimps. We havent had any meals with them and at the end of the day the guy was charging me 25% service on the drinks bill mentioning that it was because I havent ordered food. Be aware. They will try to rip you off.

This beach is in a natural cove and doesn't have big waves. My child was able to play in the water while we watched from a chair. At other beaches he gets into the waves to the point that someone has to stay in the water right by him to supervise. The beach had chairs to rent and some limited food available, though for something more substantial you will need to go to town.

Quite, introspective and beautiful placeclosse to the down town. After spend night dance or round the Rua das Pedras, and would like to be calm this is the proper place

Only problem was lack of toilet facilities, just a couple of porta potties at one end. But chair/umbrella rentals are only about $12 for a day.

Very relaxing, hidden little beach close to Geriba. Ask the locals for the little passageway to get to Ferradurinha from Geriba that way you wont have to walk in circles! ;)

No waves, few people and one of my favourite beaches in Buzios! Just a few minutes walk from Geriba.

this small elegant bay with beautiful houses, has a calm sea, families, lovers, in a gorgeous blue sea. Bars, restaurants, stand up paddle, water taxis, and a fantastic resort ...

So lovely. Clear water, lots of places to explore, and many activities. Saw a few tourists trying to drive down the road and had to turn around, bottoming out their car so park on the road (its not a long walk)There is this great little bar on the walk called Tudo de Bom. We stopped there for a few caipirinhas and they were really good and ended up having the best shrimp pastries we've ever had. SO GOOD!!! The guys there are all smiles and it was really fun!

This beach was my second fav beach just behind Joao Fernandinho because it was exotic and stunningly beautiful. The water was so beautiful and was crystal clear. The rocks were climbable and some people were jumping off certain spots into the water. I climbed down one area and swam back to shore. We rented a stand-up paddle board for cheap and paddled to the hidden beach on the side of the rocks. On the way, we managed to see 3 sea turtles. They love to eat red algae which is located all over on the sides of this beach. The water was calm and many families were swimming, kayaking, and paddle-boarding. The service was great, but the credit card machine wouldn't work because there was a bad signal. So, bring cash if you want to eat and drink. We ordered a seafood platter which was fried and I was a little disappointed. But, that was my fault for not asking. The other platters we ordered at the other beaches were grilled. I was drinking capirinhas (which were delicious) and forgot to ask if the food was fried. But, they gave us a lot of food and we never waited for a drink. It was busy for a Wednesday, but after 1 PM the beach cleared out quite a bit. We found that many people beach hop. So, the afternoons were always more fun and less crowed at all of the beaches including this one. We will def go back here. We enjoyed the people and the exotic and gorgeous water.

It stays in a very calm and beautiful bay, without waves, where you can go kayaking or practice stand up paddle. It is good for diving too. The water usually is a bit cold, specially during the summer.

This horse-shoe shaped beach is perfect for little kids, but I did not enjoy it as much because there were no waves. If you sit where the restaurants are, you don't even see the horizon (the beach feels like a lake surrounded by mountains). Having visited the Tartaruga and João Fernandes beach earlier, this one was a bit of a let down. There are very few hawkers at this beach. You can bring your own beach gear or use the umbrellas and chairs for free (provided by the hotels); they expect you to buy food and drinks from them!The sand is similar to other beaches, but there was litter (beer cans, plates, etc.). There were tiny (some sharp) stones in the water. You can rent sawn paddle boats, stand up paddles or take a ride on the banana boat.Overall, we had fun, but I shouldn't have kept this beach for last.
