Praia João Fernandes
A calm, clear turquoise bay with rows of seafood restaurants along the shore. Snorkellers can see tropical fish, and it is one of the most popular family beaches in Búzios.
João Fernandes Beach lies on the north shore of the peninsula. It is a small bay surrounded by hillsides, with calm, clear water that suits swimming and snorkelling. Snorkelling gear, kayaks and stand-up paddleboards can be rented on the shore. Behind the sand stands a row of seafood restaurants and beach bars, which get very crowded in peak season, so it is best to go in the morning. Nearby is the smaller João Fernandinho Beach. It is about 2 km from the town centre and can be reached on foot, by taxi or by water taxi, and it is also a stop on island-hopping sailing trips.
