What to expect in Niterói in March

Myllena Vieira, editor at Visite
Editor's tip

March brings fall to Niterói. In Brazil the seasons are the reverse of those in the Northern Hemisphere. Temperatures are pleasant, with highs of 29 °C (84 °F) and nights that still call for a light jacket. Crowds are light, which tends to work in favor of travelers: shorter lines, more peace and quiet, and cheaper lodging. It rains fairly often, so keep an indoor plan handy for gray days.
