Praia de Manguinhos
The most consistently windy beach in Búzios, home to kitesurfing and windsurfing schools. The shallow, calm water is ideal for beginners taking their first lessons.
Manguinhos Beach lies on the south side of the peninsula's base. Its bay is shallow and calm, and a steady northeast wind blows year-round, making it the headquarters of kitesurfing and windsurfing in Búzios. Several schools offer trial lessons and equipment rental. Swimming conditions here are fairly average, so the beach is better suited to water sports and watching kitesurfers. There is a large supermarket and some restaurants nearby. It is about 6 km from the town centre and can be reached by bus or taxi.
