Surf: Geriba is Buzios’ most consistent beachbreak, best on NW-NE wind and S to E swell, but it gets super-crowded on weekends. Nice peaks, sometimes hollow and plenty of walls to work with. Heading south to Tucuns or even Dunas de Pero will result in a mellower wave and line-up. Environment: Buzios is a ritzy seaside resort with nice villas, friendly pousadas and beautiful people. In the ‘70s, hippies would escape there from the military dictatorship.
