Town
Where Buzios Began
The historic heart of Buzios, Praia da Armacao is where the town first took shape as a whaling station. Today this west-facing beach anchors the downtown waterfront, connecting the Orla Bardot boardwalk to the vibrant Rua das Pedras shopping and dining district. Watch fishing boats bob in the harbor while enjoying the same sunset views that captivated Brigitte Bardot in 1964.
