Saquarema in lakes region is Rio’s surf Capitol. Cabo Frio has more going on as a town but the breaks are beginner. Buzios is just some small beaches with no surf.
I’ve been told there is decent surf the other direction out towards grumari. I don’t know firsthand.
I wouldn’t expect any of these places to be worthwhile long term. They are more weekend getaways within 3 hours of Rio. The main attraction is to escape the hell hole Rio has become.
