| Niteroi is 25km (15 miles) from Rio de Janeiro city, to which it is linked by the Rio-Niterói Bridge and a Ferry service. Quality of life in Niterói is one of the best (3rd place) among 5,600 Brazilian cities according to UN standards. Niteroi has beautiful oceanic, open sea beaches (Praias Oceanicas), such as Itaipu, Camboinhas, Piratininga, Itacoatiara, and along the Bay (Baia de Guanabara): Icarai, Sao Franscisco and others. Each beach offers its own unique atmosphere and attractions: from surfer beaches to quaint fishermen’s villages, Niteroi beaches are an experience not to be missed. It is in Itaipu beach, 30 minutes east of Niteroi city downtown, that you will find the family run THE BEACH HOUSE, offering budget bed and breakfast ( B&B ) accommodation for those travellers looking for a real taste of the Brazilian way of life. |
