Correão is a windswept beach and nature area on the outskirts of Cabo Frio, renowned among water sports enthusiasts for its powerful gusts and rolling waves. Unlike the calmer, more touristy beaches, Correão offers a raw, natural setting where surfers and kitesurfers can ride challenging conditions. The area is less developed, with dunes and sparse vegetation framing the shoreline, making it ideal for those seeking an active, off-the-beaten-path experience. Even non-surfers can enjoy watching the colorful kites dance across the sky.

Don't miss

  • Catch waves or ride the wind while surfing or kitesurfing
  • Watch kitesurfers perform tricks against the backdrop of dunes
  • Walk along the less-crowded beach and explore the dune ecosystem
