The most famous of Cabo Frio's beaches is Praia do Forte. This beach is home to the Fort of Sao Mateus, which was constructed in 1620 as a means of preventing invasions from the Dutch, English and French settlers. Today, the fort provides visitors stunning panoramic views of the city. Local band and samba performances are quite popular along and near the beach.

The next beach just down the way, and past the sand dunes is Praia do Foguete, aka "the Rocket Beach." Along this shoreline visitors will see the gorgeous summer vacation homes of the world's wealthiest. The beach also has the ideal conditions for surfing and fishing.

As you continue down the way, you will hit the beaches of Brava or "Wild Beach" and Praia do Peru. Brava beach is another favorite of surfers, offering strong tides and waves. Praia do Peru on the other hand is known for its sand dunes, which unlike the ones just outside of Praia do Forte are very secure.  This beach also has dozens of food and drink kiosks, which offer a lovely treat during the hot Brazilian summer days.
