Praia das Dunas

Praia das Dunas is Cabo Frio's dune-backed surf beach, a broad sand face wrapped by white dunes and known more for useful east-swell checks and strong currents than for glamour. It is a practical local surf spot with a rougher shoreline feel, especially when the tide and sand line up the wrong way.
