at a glance

located on cabo frio island (also known as ilha do farol - lighthouse island) and only accessible by boat, praia do farol is considered a paradise island and one of the most beautiful in brazil.

only accessible  via boat across from the pontal do atalaia - at this beach the sand is so white and fine, and the water so transparent and light blue to seem almost unreal.

however, it is necessary to get an authorization from the port authority to get there, or the help of tour guides working on the praia dos anjos.   arrow-back     arrow-forward
