Florianópolis Excursion
Florianópolis Excursion
After picking you up at your hotel in Balneario Camboriú between 7 and 8 am we'll drive to Florianópolis, also known as 'Floripa'.
As soon as we enter the city, we'll be greeted by one of the most typical postcard images: the Hercílio Luz Bridge. This steel construction, which connects the island of Santa Catarina with the mainland, is the second-longest suspension bridge in Brazil.
As we walk through the historic center, we'll discover the influence of Portuguese culture in the city. We'll pass by the square of Largo da Alfândega, where the old customs building is located. We'll also enter the Florianópolis Cathedral, erected in the same area where the founder of the city, Dias Velho, was killed by pirates in the late 17th century.
After walking through other popular point in the old town, such as Praça XV de Novembro and Palacio Cruz e Sousa, we'll return to the bus to head to the east side of the city. You'll have time to enjoy the views of the Lagoa da Conceição, a large lagoon that stands out for its vast expanse of dunes. An impressive protected natural area awaits!
On the other side of the lagoon, we'll find Praia da Joaquina, a beach where we'll also stop to see its dunes. After less than ten minutes by road, we'll arrive at Praia Mole, a white sandy bay that is also one of the main LGBTQ destinations in Brazil.
We'll make a stop in Barra da Lagoa so you can have lunch on your own in a local restaurant. Once we have satisfied our appetites, we'll visit the TAMAR Project, a sea turtle conservation area where you can learn all about their lifestyle.
We'll return to the bus to go to Praia dos Ingleses, more than 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) long, and finish the day passing by other nearby beaches such as those in the neighborhoods of Canasvieiras and Jurerê.
We'll return to the hotels in Balneario Camboriú by bus to conclude this excursion to Florianópolis, having visited not only its historical center but also its best beaches.
