Cabo Frio, Brazil
Follows Brazil Residency Rules. Check Digital Nomad & Retiree Pathways →
With a population of 238,166, Cabo Frio is no small town. The airport here, operated by a private company, handles cargo and holiday charters, but the city's bureaucracy is a persistent headache. Travelers should expect a hassle getting to and from the airport, located 8-10 km from the city center. Cabo Frio may work for those who don't mind the administrative friction, but it's not for the faint of heart.
