Buzios cruise port offers clear, calm water of the west coast, the east coast are great for water sports.
Buzios cruise port used to be a point for supplies of the French
pirates. It gained its popularity in the 1960 when Armação de Búzios was
visited by the famous Brigitte Bardot.
The French actress has her own sculpture in the city – Orla Bardot. It
is real-size and was done by Christina Motta, plastic artist. Since
then, Buzios cruise port quickly grew its popularity.
There are moorings available from ICAB which are registered with the
Maritime Authorities and are checked twice yearly by professional
divers.
There are various anchorages along the shores of the town. The best
anchorage is oposite the last house in the village, in the SW corner of
the bay. In northerly winds, there is adequate protection to the north
of the yacht club, on the southern side of the peninsular, but you are
more exposed to the constant SE swell. There is more room to anchor in
the other near-by bays, but they are less protected from the east.
Beware of the many, insufficiently marked, local fishing devices.
