Transfer to Cabo Frio
We'll set sail from the main pier of Vila do Abraão, leaving Ilha Grande behind in exchange for Marina Porto Real pier.
Upon arrival at this port, located in the Rio de Janeiro town of Conceição de Jacareí, we'll hop in a vehicle to travel east. After a 2.5-hour drive, we'll arrive at Galeão Airport to swap vehicles and pick up other passengers.
Following our short break, we'll continue our journey east to the coastal town of Cabo Frio, where we'll drop you off at your hotel. In total, expect the trip between Ilha Grande and Cabo Frio to take about 7 hours.
Once in Cabo Frio, you're free to enjoy the attractions at your own pace. This town stands out for its crystal-clear waters and white sand beaches, such as Praia do Forte, Praia do Peró, and Praia das Dunas.
We also recommend visiting the Ilha do Japonês, a small piece of paradise located in the Lagoa de Araruama. Plus, you'll find a wide range of bars and restaurants, even lively nightclubs. One thing's for sure, you'll have a blast in Cabo Frio!
