About this site
Cabo Frio sits on the coast of Rio de Janeiro state, a region known for cold upwelling currents that bring nutrient-rich, often clearer water than much of the surrounding Brazilian coastline. Dive sites around this area are typically reached by boat from the town itself, out among rocky reefs and islands offshore.
