The bairro da Passagem combines heritage and everyday life in Cabo Frio. Historic buildings and the surroundings of the Igreja de São Benedito make up a walk that can be done on foot, with time to observe façades and details.
Start with a short walk and extend the route according to the group's pace. For those who like to photograph, choose spots that do not block entrances or circulation. Remember that the neighborhood is also a place of residence and work.
Gastronomy is part of the experience, with bars and restaurants in the local hub. Allocate time to choose where to eat, without relying on event programming. The walk and the meal can take up an afternoon or an evening.
The walk can be combined with the scenery along the canal and with a day at Praia do Forte. Plan transfers so there is a break between the beach and the walk. Before finishing, check the transport back to your accommodation.
