    How to make Beach restrictions, because the Araruama lagoon has a certain level of pollution, but as a path to walk, is excellent and with a very pretty landscape.

    Worth the ride, great look to hit some shots or lining a yoke to contemplate moving. Recommended tour in family with young children, romantic.

Where to stay in Araruama

©
Araruama's accommodations lie along the north of the lagoon, as well as along the southern strip of land separating the lagoon from the ocean--so the real thing to decide is whether you want to be lakeside, or oceanside. The major hotels concentrate near the lake in the main urban area, particularly in the Centro district. They generally offer comfortable rooms at good prices, though many visitors' main concern is the view. As for budget-friendly guesthouses, you'll find some throughout the main town, although they're more common south of the lake along the Atlantic coast, where family-run pousadas offer basic rooms, many with excellent views.
